+	<para>GNOME 3.0 will continue to provide the desktop platform and applications it always has, and will
+	also feature a new user interface in GNOME Shell and the GNOME Activity Journal which easily helps you browse
+	and find files on your computer.  GNOME 3.0 also will include new features in accessbility, new user help
+	and documentation, GNOME's first web service in Tomboy Online and more.
