Re: 2.27 Release Notes - Call for items

[Paul Cutler <pcutler gnome org>]

Thank you to everyone who has added content to the release notes for GNOME 2.27.  Work will start this weekend on writing the release notes, so if you have something to add, now is the time!

I need help with the last 3 sections:

* What's new for Mobile developers
* Regressions
* Plans for the next release (GNOME 3.0!)

These sections have little content added, and I believe the plans for the next release section to be pretty important in the upcoming release notes.

Lastly, if we could get some help with the What's New for Developer standpoint as it relates to deprecated libraries as we move towards GNOME 3.0, similar to the 2.26 release notes in section 4 (http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.26/) but with more detail, it would be very helpful.

Thanks.

Paul

Hello developers!  It's time to start working on the release notes for the upcoming GNOME 2.27 / 2.28 release.

Please add your notes to this page for changes to applications in GNOME 2.28:  http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointTwentyseven/ReleaseNotes

These just need to be bullet points, nothing fancy, and the release notes team will follow up if additional detail is needed.

In addition to what's new for users, I am hoping for detailed information for developers with all the cleanup done in libraries for GNOME 3.0.  Speaking of 3.0, any advice on how we start talking about GNOME 3.0 / GNOME Shell / Zeitgeist etc in the "Plans for next release" section.

A big thank you to the Hamster team for already including new features.

If you have any questions or comments, please let me know.

Thanks!
