GNOME Team Released 2.25.90 Beta.
GNOME team released 2.25.90 Beta 1 just before 1 Month of it’s most awaitng release of GNOME Desktop Environment 2.26 The announcement comes from Frederic Peters says “ This is the sixth development release, and the first 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.” The GNOME 2.25.x is an unstable series of releases especially developed for testing and hacking, as this will become the official stable GNOME 2.26. “
“ With this release, we are now even more 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. We also remain in the string change announcement period — all string changes must be announced to both the gnome-doc-list and gnome-i18n lists. “
This is a developer preview only please don’t use it on production machines only use it for testing purposes only.
To compile GNOME 2.25.90, 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
