Released on schedule, to the day, it is the culmination of six months effort by GNOME contributors around the world: hackers, documentors, usability and accessibility specialists, translators, maintainers, sysadmins, companies, artists, users and testers. Due to their hard work, we have another great release to be proud of - thanks very much to every contributor! You'll find plenty of information about GNOME 2.16 in our extensive release notes, linked from the 2.16 start page. All about GNOME 2.16: http://www.gnome.org/start/2.16/Not sure whether that's been reported before, but this page: http://www.gnome.org/start/2.16/notes/C/rnfeatures.html has broken images. eg.: The requested URL /start/2.16/notes/C/figures/rnfeatures-laptop.png was not found on this server. Cheers
<rant> For the record, the release notes were really a sprint this year - I volunteered to convert the wiki pages to docbook, and ended up committing all the changes to CVS, setting up the build structure, and touching up and uploading all the images to be included (I obviously missed two). I didn't know the links to the release notes were going to be sent out today with the official release notification. In the future, we should set a specific timeline for the release notes and a deadline for comments on a final draft, and a freeze for translation right before the release. Additionally, we may need help to put PO files on the documentation status page, so that translators can easily access them. </rant> Anyway, happy GNOME 2.16 release! -- Brent Smith <gnome nextreality net> IRC: smitten
