Next GNOME Foundation Elections

,----[ Quote ]
| As people probably remember, the current GNOME Foundation Board was elected 
| to serve until June 30th, 2009. We changed the end date from December 31th to 
| June 30th so that the new board could have a face-to-face meeting at the very 
| beginning of its term, during GUADEC. This face-to-face meeting is most 
| useful to energize the board and make things go faster, so it really makes 
| sense to have it occur at the beginning of a board term.

The Beginner's Guide to Linux, Part 3: Choosing Your Window Manager and Desktop
Environment

,----[ Quote ]
| Due to the vast number of window managers available for Linux, many new users 
| often feel overwhelmed at the idea of having to learn their way around them. 
| We must emphasize that many people experiment with several window managers 
| before settling down with one that feels right for  them, and there certainly 
| is no need to learn all of them. Due to their modular nature, it is common to 
| have several window managers installed at once.

GNOME 2.26: Fast & Stable, But Light On The New Features

,----[ Quote ]
| As I’ve used GNOME 2.26, I tried hard to find new things to make the overall
| release notable, but unfortunately I couldn’t really find anything exciting.
| Don’t get me wrong, GNOME is not a horrible desktop by any means; it’s fast,
| stable and gets the job done. However, this new release likely will not do
| much to convince users of other desktop environments to make the switch.
