GNOME 3.28’s development cycle will take place under the 3.27.x umbrella, and, the first snapshot, GNOME 3.27.1, is expected to land later today or by the end of the week, depending on how fast the maintainers of various core components release new versions. Mutter, GNOME’s window and composite manager, has already been updated to version 3.27.1, a release that finally introduces support for hybrid GPU systems. But Mutter 3.27.1 also comes with improvements for HiDPI scaling of shell chrome, and repairs unredirection of full-screen windows.
