news 28 Posted November 6, 2008 GNOME 2.25.1 Development Release ================================ And here's the beginning of a new cycle! 2.25.1 marks the first release towards our 2.26 release that will happen in March 2009. Until then, I'm sure we'll see some good changes going on -- like all the efforts about getting rid of libgnome or cleaning up various things. Isn't this wonderful? I do think it is, and I hope you all agree. At least, you should. Really. Because it means we're alive and kicking! (I was going to sing the song, but, hrm, no, you don't want to hear me sing) To compile GNOME 2.25.1, you can use GARNOME [1] (which supports users and has additional/different modules available), or the jhbuild [2] modulesets [3] (which use the exact tarball versions from the official release): [1] http://www.gnome.org/projects/garnome/ [2] http://library.gnome.org/devel/jhbuild/ [3] http://download.gnome.org/teams/releng/2.25.1/ The release notes that describe the changes between 2.24.1 and 2.25.1 are available.
