“Of course, GNOME 3 is one of the big new features of Fedora 15
– and the free software desktop in general. Fedora will be
running three Test Days to aid in the final polishing and
stabilization of the GNOME 3 release, and make sure Fedora 15
provides a good desktop experience. This is a great opportunity to
help both GNOME and Fedora development and help make sure you can
work effectively in GNOME 3 when it lands on your desktop. Even
though these are Fedora events, you don’t have to run Fedora to
join in, and since GNOME 3 will land in all the distributions soon,
the testing will be just as valuable to your distribution: all the
feedback will go to the GNOME developers for the benefit of all
distributions. The first Test Day is this Thursday, 2011-02-03. You
can participate just by visiting the wiki page, and following
through the instructions you find there – it’s really easy!
There will be other testers, Fedora QA team members and GNOME
developers in the IRC channel – #fedora-test-day on Freenode
IRC – all day long to help out and discuss issues with. If
you don’t know how to use IRC, no problem – you can use
WebIRC. If you click that link it will open the IRC channel (which
is like a chat room) in a web page in any good browser.”
