Re: Artigos - GNOME Journal

["Carlos Pereira" <carlao2005 gmail com>]

Oi Pessoal,

Só pra registrar, a não muito tempo, rolou uma discussão na lista do
gnome-journal [ gnome-journal-list gnome org ] com o titulo "has gnome
journal died?".

Talvez fosse legal uma consulta nos archives dessa mailing list pra se
inteirar do que rolou.

Coloco uma das mensagens (que ainda encontrei no meu trash) abaixo, só
pra vocês verem se vale a pena procurar.

Grande abraço a todas e a todos!

OK, so it's been some time since I e-mailed jdub. I still haven't
heard back from jdub - what should our next steps be to move forward?
I don't want to see the recent momentum die away.

What can I do to keep things moving?
