TARBALLS DUE: GNOME 3.4.2

Hello all,

It's time to get off your development branch for a bit, contemplate
the tenacious work of our translators, cheer on our documentation
team, remind yourself of the important fixes you cherry picked, write
a nice entry to your NEWS file, and upload a nice new stable tarball.

Tarballs are due on 2012-05-14 before 23:59 UTC for the GNOME 3.4.2
stable release, which will be delivered on Wednesday. Modules which
were proposed for inclusion should try to follow the unstable schedule
so everyone can test them.  Please make sure that your tarballs will
be uploaded before Monday 23:59 UTC: tarballs uploaded later than that
will probably be too late to get in 3.4.2. If you are not able to make
a tarball before this deadline or if you think you'll be late, please
send a mail to the release team and we'll find someone to roll the
tarball for you!

For more information about 3.5, the full schedule, the official
module lists and the proposed module lists, please see our colorful 3.5
page:
   http://www.gnome.org/start/unstable

For a quick overview of the GNOME schedule, please see:

Cheers,

        Frederic

Welcome interns!

Hi all,

On Monday GNOME accepted 29 Google Summer of Code interns and 10 Outreach Program for Women interns! All the
interns made a contribution to the project they were applying to work on and almost all were connected to
their mentors during the application process. We are thrilled to have these talented and dedicated
contributors have a chance to spend the whole summer working on GNOME! Thanks to Google, Mozilla,
Collabora, Red Hat, the Free Software Foundation, and the GNOME Foundation for making these internships possible!

Thank you to all the mentors who helped the applicants along the way and will guide the participants this
summer! Everyone, please help out mentors from your project by also helping the participants when possible.

Because we are closing the 3.6 feature proposal period, it would be great if mentors consider proposing the
planned work as a 3.6 feature. If your intern’s proposal is about a well-defined user-visible feature,
the student is an experienced GNOME contributor, and/or you are dedicated to spend part of your time
working on the feature, please propose it for 3.6.

Below, is the list of all the interns’ projects. The ones without a link are OPW projects. The interns will
blog about their work on Planet GNOME throughout the summer.

Thanks to everyone and welcome to the interns!
Marina, on behalf of GSoC and OPW admins

3.5 development opens

Hi,

with the 3.4 release out (and it was a really smooth release, thanks
everybody), the hard code freeze is now lifted. Now is a good time to
make 3.5 plans, write feature pages if you have interesting features
that you want to work on, and dive into new development. But please
create gnome-3.4 branches first, to keep strings and UI stable for
3.4.1.

Matthias

GNOME 3.4 released

                    GNOME 3.4 Released
                   ====================

Today, the GNOME Project celebrates the release of GNOME 3.4, the latest
version of the popular, multi-platform free desktop and of its developer
platform. This timely release marks the first birthday of GNOME 3.

GNOME 3.4 is the second major update of GNOME 3. It builds on the
foundations that we have laid with 3.0 and 3.2 and offers a greatly
enhanced experience. The exciting new features and improvements in this
release include a new virtual machine and remote access application, a
completely revamped web browsing user experience, integrated document
search, first-class web applications, better graphics tablet support,
application menus, and many more.

For more information about the major changes in GNOME 3.4, please visit
our release notes:

 http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.4/

GNOME 3.4 will be available shortly in many distributions. Live images
of GNOME 3.4 are currently being prepared and will appear soon at:

 http://www.gnome.org/getting-gnome/

This six months effort wouldn't have been possible without the whole
GNOME community, made of contributors and friends from all around the
world: developers, designers, documentors, usability and accessibility
specialists, translators, maintainers, sysadmins, companies, artists,
users and testers. GNOME would not exist without all those people.

Propose new features for GNOME 3.6!

GNOME developers!

Now that you've packaged your tarballs for the soon-to-be-released shiny
GNOME 3.4.0, the release team asks you to come up and discuss new
platform-wide features to be added for GNOME 3.6!

Please add your plans for the next six months here:

      https://live.gnome.org/ThreePointFive/Features

Proposed features must have an assignee working on them.
The proposal period is planned to end in about a month (Apr 23th).

Feature proposals are about the core desktop, hence this does NOT affect
features on a per-module basis. Still we highly encourage you to
communicate your plans for your module early by adding them here: 

      https://live.gnome.org/RoadMap

Thanks a lot!,
andre

TARBALLS DUE: GNOME 3.3.92 release candidate + HARD CODE FREEZE

Dear all,

Coming Monday is the last change to get your fixes in, after that: hard
code freeze. Meaning: Just one commit means not only the usual vim+git
activity, but also requires a big bunch of approvals to get that fix in.

Now you've been working on your favourite code for almost 6 months since
3.2. You'd probably like some appreciation for that. We like that too,
but, please, check if we haven't forgotten your contributions and check
the (still changing) 3.4 not-even-alpha quality release notes at:
  http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.4/
To get in: gnome / 3.4. To anyone not from GNOME: feel free to read, but
it is all lies until the password protection has been removed.
If you do notice your contribution is missing or there are outright
lies, either write something down in the wiki at:
  https://live.gnome.org/ThreePointThree/ReleaseNotes
or send an email to marketing-list <at> gnome.org.

and now for the usual:

We would like to inform you about the following:
* GNOME 3.3.92 rc tarballs due
* Hard Code Freeze

Tarballs are due on 2012-03-19 before 23:59 UTC for the GNOME 3.3.92
rc release, which will be delivered on Wednesday. Modules which were
proposed for inclusion should try to follow the unstable schedule so
everyone can test them.  Please make sure that your tarballs will be
uploaded before Monday 23:59 UTC: tarballs uploaded later than that
will probably be too late to get in 3.3.92. If you are not able to
