Gnome 3 Will Be Amazing
,----[ Quote ]
| I am excited. I am really, really excited.
| This should scare you. It scares me. But I
| hope youâll bear with us; and by bear I mean
| âhelp us carry the loadâ. Help us make this
| real! Help us refine the bad parts! Help us
| eliminate the bad sub-designs! Help us shoot
| flames from our eyes and launch dragons from
| our missile tubes. Help us break granite
| with our faces. Descend with us, little
| lambs, into the labyrinth of chasomagic.

GNOME Shell 2.29.0 with new notification system
,----[ Quote ]
| Version 2.29.0 of the GNOME Shell is now
| available for testing. The developers have
| integrated a new notification system into
| this version. An information bar at the
| bottom edge of the screen informs users, for
| instance, about newly connected devices or
| about which track the audio player has just
| changed to. Previous notifications are saved
| and can be accessed via an info icon in the
| bottom right corner of the screen.

Gnome-Shell, I changed my mind
,----[ Quote ]
| What is nice about the gnome-shell concept,
| is the use of virtual desktops, I know they
| have always been there, but it makes it a
| natural intuitive task. Switching
| applications from one desktop to the other
| is a pleasure, that makes it easy to
| configure your desktops the way you want it
| quickly...

GNOME Revamps and Renews Outreach Program for Women
,----[ Quote ]
| The approach? Think Google Summer of Code --
| complete with internships, mentors, and
| sponsors -- with an emphasis on team
| contributions rather than stand-alone
| projects.
|
| GNOME ran a similar outreach program in
| 2006, and received one hundred applications
| within two weeks. Because funds are (always)
| limited, great projects (and talent) had to
| be turned away -- but Google was so was
| impressed by the proposals, it funded three
| additional projects. The 2006 Women's
| Outreach Program had six participants, but
| organizers are tentatively planning on five
| participants this season.
