GNOME Foundation Annual Report for 2007
,----[ Quote ]
| The GNOME Foundation has released an annual report as a rather
| slickly-produced PDF file. "We have completed our original goal. Ten years
| ago, GNU/Linux distributions did not include a free and usable web browser.
| Ten years ago, using only free software, you could not do graphic design and
| illustration, you could not balance your checkbook, you could not download
| pictures from your camera to the computer, you could not do phone calls over
| the Internet, you could not create a spreadsheet with pie charts, and you
| could not plug a USB drive into your computer and expect it to 'just work'.
| Okay, USB sticks didn't exist ten years ago, but you get the idea."

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.
