I am pleased to announce I have just completed the port of GNOME 2.4.0 to FreeBSD. While it will not make our 4.9-RELEASE (we're in code freeze now), it will make into the tree in time for our 5.2-RELEASE. In the meantime, it is available, as all the GNOME 2.3 snaps were, in my CVS repo at http://www.marcuscom.com:8080/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi under the ``ports'' module. I would like to thank all of the GNOME development teams that incorporated our FreeBSD portability patches especially the GDM team that pro-actively got the patches, and made some very welcome changes. Our GNOME 2.3 users have done nothing but rave about the new version. It looks like a real winner. Thanks to everyone. Joe P.S. If someone could update the GNOME 2.4 Start page to point the FreeBSD users to http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/, that would be great. Thanks. -- Joe Marcus Clarke FreeBSD GNOME Team :: marcus FreeBSD org gnome FreeBSD org FreeNode / #freebsd-gnome http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome
