GNOME 3.19.90 (first beta release) available

[Javier Jardón <jjardon gnome org>]

Hi all,

with a little delay, but here it is: GNOME 3.19.90 is now available.
Note I had some problems to compile some modules, but hopefully they will be
fixed for the next release:
- latest vte release tarball seems to not be available
- gnome-photos depends on an unreleased version of gegl
- glib didn't compile correctly here, so I decided to use the previous
glib release

Nevertheless, you should not have any problem is you use the
modulesets/jhbuild configuration provided in the releng folder (see below)

First beta means we have now entered The Freeze:

 - API/ABI Freeze (No API or ABI changes should be made in the
   platform libraries),

 - Feature Freeze (No new features can be added anymore, let's focus
   on stability and give the documentation team time to document the
   new things),

 - UI Freeze (same idea).

We are also now in String Change Announcement Period, string changes
can still be made (e.g. for typo fixes or translatability
improvements) but all string changes must be announced to both
gnome-i18n@ and gnome-doc-list

Details are available on the wiki:

To compile GNOME 3.19.90, you can use the jhbuild modulesets published
by the release team (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.
