     <title>Improved Animation Rendering</title>
+    <p>GNOME &gnomeversion; features a significant technological breakthrough in the way that animated 
graphics are rendered. By improving the coordination between the different technical components involved in 
displaying animated graphics, far greater efficiency and performance has been acheived. The result of this 
work is smooth and robust visual transitions and window resizing.</p>

+
+  <p>GNOME 3.8 is packed with new features and enhancements. Here are some of the other improvements that 
can be found in the new release.</p>
+
+  <section id="initial-setup">
+    <title>Initial Setup</title>
+    <p>A new <app>Initial Setup</app> assistant, which helps you quickly and easily set up GNOME 3 when you 
use it for the first time. <app>Initial Setup</app> also helps new users learn about GNOME 3 thanks to a new 
set of <app>Getting Started</app> video tutorials.</p>

+  <section id="activities-overview">
+    <title>Activities Overview</title>
+    <p>A substantially revised and improved window selector. This uses space more efficiently, making window 
thumbnails much larger and easier to recognise. Window thumbnails are also scaled to reflect the size of the 
actual windows, again making recognition easier. The result of these changes is much more effective window 
switching.</p>
+  </section>
+
+  <section id="settings">
+    <title>Settings</title>
+    <p>The GNOME <app>Settings</app> application (formerly known as <app>System Settings</app>) has been 
substantially improved for 3.8. The main <app>Settings</app> interface has been improved, with a new back 
button and updated toolbar design. The new version includes a total of four new settings panels:</p>
+    <list>
+      <item><p><app>Notifications</app>: configure which applications display notifications, and how much 
information they include in popups. These settings are particularly useful if you do not want personal 
information being displayed on the screen.</p></item>
+      <item><p><app>Privacy</app>: control the behavior of the <gui>Screen Lock</gui>, whether your name is 
displayed on the screen, whether features which show your recent activity should be enabled, and purge your 
<gui>Trash</gui> and <gui>Temporary Files</gui></p></item>
+      <item><p><app>Search</app>: decide which applications display search results in the <gui>Activities 
Overview</gui> as well as the order in which they are displayed. The new <app>Search</app> settings also 
include fine grained controls over which content is included in search results.</p></item>
+      <item><p><app>Sharing</app>: control which content you share with others, as well as remote login 
options. This section includes settings for <gui>Personal File Sharing</gui>, <gui>Screen Sharing</gui>, 
<gui>Media Sharing</gui> and <gui>Remote Login</gui>.</p></item>
+    </list>
+    <p>A number of other panels have also been substantially revised, often with new designs:</p>
+    <list>
+      <item><p><app>Region and Language</app> has been redesigned. The new panel allows you to easily get an 
overview of your settings, and includes new dialogs which make selecting languages and input methods much 
easier.</p></item>
+      <item><p><app>Color</app> also has a more refined design.</p></item>
+      <item><p><app>Network</app> has been substantially improved. It includes a better <gui>Wi-Fi</gui> 
network list and a new Wi-Fi <gui>History</gui> dialog. Many of the settings dialogs have been improved to 
make them more usable, and support has been added for multiple <gui>Wired</gui> configuration 
profiles.</p></item>
+      <item><p><app>Power</app> has a new interface as well as new <gui>Power Saving</gui> options which 
make it easier for you to make your battery last longer.</p></item>
+      <item><p><app>Printers</app> includes many user interface refinements. Samba printers are now 
supported and will be automatically discovered.</p></item>

+    <title>Online Accounts</title>
+    <p><link href="https://owncloud.org/";>OwnCloud</link> provides many of the personal cloud services that 
you might expect from big internet companies, such as online storage for files, photos, contacts and 
calendars. However, OwnCloud is also Free Software that you can run on your own server or through one of the 
many commercial OwnCloud providers. GNOME 3.8 provides integrated OwnCloud support through GNOME Online 
Accounts. Once you have set up your OwnCloud account, GNOME applications will automatically provide access 
it, so that you can access your files, contacts and calendars.</p>
+    <p>GNOME Online Accounts also features new support for IMAP and SMTP email accounts.</p>

+    <title>Other Improvements</title>
+    <p>The core GNOME 3 user experience has received a huge amount of work for 3.8, with a large number of 
bug fixes and enhancements. These include:</p>
+    <list>
+      <item><p>The use of pressure sensitivity for the <gui>Activities Overview</gui> hot corner and for 
opening the <gui>Message Tray</gui>. In previous releases, the hot corner was activated by touching the 
pointer against the corner of the screen. To activate the <gui>Message Tray</gui>, it was necessary to hold 
the pointer against the bottom of the screen for a period of time. In GNOME 3.8, these mechanisms have been 
substantially refined by using pressure sensitivity. From this release, a determined movement the pointer to 
the hot corner or to the bottom of the screen will result in activation. This enhancement avoids accidental 
triggers and is quicker and more immediate.</p></item>
+      <item><p>The metadata for every GNOME application has been reviewed and updated during the 3.8 
development cycle. This makes searching for applications more reliable.</p></item>
+      <item><p>New context menus have been added for changing the wallpaper and clearing the Message 
Tray.</p></item>
+      <item><p>GNOME's keyboard shortcuts for system actions have been updated, in order to increase 
consistency. See <link xref="shortcuts"/>.</p></item>
+      <item><p>Improved animated transitions from the login screen to your session as well as within the 
<gui>Activities Overview</gui>.</p></item>
