For Developers and Testers!
This release is a feature-frozen, development series snapshot.
It is used by developers and testers as their day-to-day working
desktop, and is ready for wider testing by our user community. Like
the Linux kernel, GNOME uses odd minor version numbers to indicate
development status, so this 2.3.x series will eventually become the
official 2.4 release. Please check the 2.3 start page for more
information: http://www.gnome.org/start/2.3/
ChangeLogs
Thanks very much to Luke Stroven for compiling these awesome
extended ChangeLogs, which you can find on FootNotes:
http://gnomedesktop.org/article.php?sid=1205
Build Requirements
- The tarballs included in the release. 🙂
- Some very basic packages not distributed with this release,
such as image libraries, popt and freetype. These should all be
included with or available for your distribution. - Xft2 and fontconfig for superior font rendering and
configuration, preferably from http://fontconfig.org/ NOT XFree86
4.3.x. - Docbook DTD 4.1.2, Docbook XSL stylesheets and a valid system
catalogue file for scrollkeeper (which in turn is required by many
desktop components for documentation).
Happy testing!

Gossip 0.3
Imendio is proud to announce the first release of Gossip, an
easy to user Jabber client for the magnificent GNOME platform.
What is Gossip?
Gossip aims at making Jabber easy to use and tries to give GNOME
users a real user friendly way of chatting with their friends.
Since this is the first release (even though we have used it
ourselves for over six months) we are not there yet but we are
working hard on getting Gossip to be the natural choice for people
who want instant messaging without fuzz.
What is Jabber?
Jabber is an open instant messaging XML-based protocol. It can be
used instead of ICQ, AIM, MSN, … or together with them through
gateways (not supported in Gossip yet).
