GNOME 2.25.91 Beta Release
==========================

This is the seventh development release, and the second beta, towards
our 2.26 release that will happen in March 2009.  By now most things
are in place, and your mission is easy: Go download it. Go compile it.
Go test it.  And go hack on it, document it, translate it, fix it.

With this release, we are almost completely frozen; developer API/ABI
were already, and at this point all new API are hopefully documented;
no UI changes may be made without approval from the release team and
notification to the documentation project, and no new features without
approval from the release team; no string changes may be made without
confirmation from the translation team and notification to release
team, translation team, and documentation team.

To compile GNOME 2.25.91, you can use GARNOME [1] (which supports
users and has additional/different modules available), or the jhbuild
[2] modulesets [3] (which use the exact tarball versions from the
official release):

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
--------------------------

This release is a snapshot of development code. Although it is
buildable and usable, it is primarily intended for testing and hacking
purposes. GNOME uses odd minor version numbers to indicate development
status.

For more information about 2.25, the full schedules, the official
modules list and the proposed modules list, please see our 2.25 page:

We hope you'll love it,
