Gnome Shell Might Add Real Multiple Desktops
,----[ Quote ]
| The idea is to have custom folders for
| each desktop. Right now, the desktop is
| located at /home/your_username/Desktop and
| this would provide a new folder for each
| virtual desktop so that you can fully work
| on a project on a given Desktop -
| including all the files related to your
| project / task.

Future GNOME: What to Expect in GNOME 3.0
,----[ Quote ]
| The release of GNOME 3.0, the popular
| desktop's first major release in eight
| years, promises to be the major free
| software event in autumn 2010. Where is
| GNOME now? What can we expect of GNOME
| 3.0? Of GNOME 3 as a series of releases?
|
| When I asked Stormy Peters, the executive
| director of the GNOME Foundation, where to
| go for answers, she directed me to Vincent
| Untz. A director of the GNOME Foundation
| and one of the senior members of the GNOME
| Release Team, Untz is better positioned
| than almost anyone to offer an overview of
| the project from both a general and a
| technical perspective.

A sneak peak at GNOME 3
,----[ Quote ]
| Now I will warn you that I am a fan of
| GNOME. I understand that KDE did the same
| thing when they re-invented their take on
| the desktop. The difference is â the
| innovation from KDE seemed more like a
| âretooling with added featuresâ. GNOME 3
| will be a milestone for the desktop. I have
| head some people say it is too much like
| the âiPhone interfaceâ. To those I have to
| say âuse it firstâ. But no matter where you
| stand, GNOME 3 is going to be different,
| and this article will show you how to
| install it and give you a first glance.

GNOME 2.30: Waiting for the Big Release
,----[ Quote ]
| GNOME 2.30 was originally intended to
| coincide with GNOME 3.0 -- a massive
| cleanup and rethinking of the popular
| desktop. However, GNOME 3.0 is delayed for
| at least another release, which leaves
| GNOME 2.30 as most likely the last version
| in a series stretching back almost a
| decade.
|
| [...]
|
| On the other hand, 2.30 will probably be
| the final version of the 2.0 series. For
| those who were around for GNOME 2.0 back in
| 2000, the 2.30 release stands as evidence
| of how far GNOME in general and the free
| desktop in particular have come in the last
| decade in usability and design. If you do a
| search for images of early GNOME releases
| and compare the results with 2.30, you can
| have no doubt that, although GNOME
| sometimes tends to over-simplify, its
| improvements over the last decade remain
| unmistakable.

First Look: GNOME 2.30
,----[ Quote ]
| April Fools turned out to be a great day for
| Linux enthusiasts, as GNOME developers
| decided to offer them something to look
| forward to except getting punked and do a
| proper launch, and a pretty big one at that.
| GNOME 2.30 is now available for everyone and
| the final release of the 2.xx series is
| packing some serious punch and plenty of
| goodies for even the most demanding user.
