Eight Interesting Improvements In GNOME 2.22
,----[ Quote ]
| Back in November we started sharing some of the exciting features planned for
| the GNOME 2.22 and 2.24 releases, and now that the first GNOME 2.22.0 Beta
| release is planned for later this week, we have taken another look at the
| packages set for inclusion and the changes that have actually been made.
| While nothing groundbreaking will be introduced in GNOME 2.22 (compared to
| KDE 4.0 at least), this desktop environment does have some moderate changes
| worth noting. In this article are eight interesting packages that either have
| noticeable changes since GNOME 2.20 or are new to GNOME. This list isn't
| all-inclusive or ordered in any particular fashion, but just eight changes
| that had caught our attention.
|
| Epiphany With WebKit: The big feature coming to Epiphany, the GNOME web
| browser, in GNOME 2.22 is the ability to use the WebKit backend.
