MATE 1.14 adds better GTK+3 support, especially for the GTK+ 3.20 release, and removes the old mate-conf-import tool and MateConf migration script. Other than that, it looks like the MATE NetSpeed Applet, MATE Panel, and MATE Terminal received some improvements, there’s better Client Side Decorations (CSD) support, the Mozo and MATE System Monitor apps were ported to GTK+3, and it’s possible to enable or disable the Volume and Brightness OSD.
