Sprucing up the Linux desktop

,----[ Quote ]
| Gnome 3.0 is coming to give the Linux desktop 
| a boost
| 
| Gnome, the desktop environment favoured by 
| the likes of Ubuntu Linux, is getting an 
| overhaul. For users this means a number of 
| things, including a new way of interacting 
| with files and a new way of launching and 
| managing applications.
| 
| The existing Gnome desktop, version 2.x, is 
| now close on eight years old.
| 
| [...]
| 
| Gnome 3.0 is expected to be released in 
| September this year. It will most likely find 
| its way into mainstream Linux releases from 
| October onwards.

Preparing To Let Go Of GTK+ 2.x For GTK+ 3.0

,----[ Quote ]
| As we have mentioned with the first of the
| early GNOME 3.0 development packages getting
| checked-in (such as the improved Totem Movie
| Player), the first GNOME 2.31 development
| milestone is this week in the road to GNOME
| 3.0 (a.k.a. v2.32) that will be reached this
| September. Joining this round of new GNOME
| development packages that are looking for
| testing is GTK+ 2.21.0, which is leading up to
| the 2.22 release of the de facto standard
| tool-kit for the GNOME desktop.
