GNOME 3.32 has recently entered development, and it will be the next major release of the popular desktop environment for Linux-based operating systems scheduled for release on March 13, 2019. According to Adrien Plazas, it will be the default UI for the Librem 5 Linux phone. As such, the developer invites GNOME and GTK+ app developers to adapt their applications to work both on their favorite GNU/Linux distribution and on the upcoming Librem 5 Linux phone, which will use Purism’s Debian-based and security-oriented Pure OS operating system by default.
