GNOME 3.17.4

[Matthias Clasen <matthias clasen gmail com>]

Hi all,

GNOME 3.17.4 is out. This is a development snapshot, so use it with caution.

Among the new things in this release, you can find improved Wayland hi-dpi
support in mutter, IP addresses for vms in gnome-boxes, MathML support in
orca, performance improvements in tracker, events from different boots in
gnome-logs, a new places view in the GTK+ file chooser, a new application
preview: gnome-todo, and many small improvements and bug fixes all over
the place.

To compile GNOME 3.17.4, you can use the jhbuild [1] modulesets [2]
(which use the exact tarball versions from the official release).

You can also test the latest code using the vm images [3] that are
produced by our continuous integration infrastructure, build.gnome.org.

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

This release is a snapshot of early 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 3.17, the full schedule, the official
module lists and the proposed module lists, please see our 3.17
planning page:
http://www.gnome.org/start/unstable

For a quick overview of the GNOME schedule, please see:

Before the next snapshot, 3.17.90, is released on August 17, the GNOME
community will get together at Guadec 2015 in Gothenburg, Sweden.
We hope to see you there!
