From: Jeff Waugh Date: Thu, February 28, 2002 0:11 Subject: GARNOME Preview Three: GARNOME Preview Three: "Jag förlorade mina byxor, men fann kärleken." ===================================================================== GARNOME 0.7.5 - the bad-ass, bleeding edge GNOME distribution for testers and tweakers everywhere - is ready for more tire-kicking and bug-bashing. If you're dying to try the GNOME 2.0 Desktop, but don't want to fall into the depraved addictions and co-dependencies of testing from anonymous CVS, then GARNOME is for you. This release is very worthwhile for testers - please leap on the GNOME 2.0 Desktop testing bandwagon! Join uber-bug-meister Luis Villa in the #bugs channel on irc.gnome.org to contribute. What's New? ----------- - Updated packages to most recent snapshot status including: eel, gedit2, gnome-applets, gnome-desktop, gnome-media, gnome-mime-data, gnome-panel, gnome-session, gnome-system-monitor, gnome-utils, gnome-vfs, libglade and nautilus. - Points to snapshot directory on ftp ftp.gnome.org, because pointing to latest/sources is silly! - Added aclocaldir patch to librep garball from Dan Nicolaescu. Thanks! Where do I get it? ------------------ The tarball and documentation is available on the GARNOME website: http://www.gnome.org/~jdub/garnome/ Happy Testing! - Jeff -- Patches are like Free Software love letters.
