Hey all!

 

This is the first unstable development release of the Eye of GNOME in

the 2.25/2.26 developmente cycle. You will probably know a lot of the

NEWS from 2.24.1 already, but there's also some new stuff, like for

example dropping some deprecated libraries and the reason why Luis

owes Claudio some beer/ice cream at next GUADEC. ;-)
