GNOME 2.22 Beta 2 Coming This Week

In time for Valentine's day, the GNOME developers are sharing their open-source love with the Linux community in the form of the GNOME 2.22 Beta 2 release. Among the packages checked in so far are new versions of Glib, Eye of GNOME, Cheese, Clutter, gnome-applets, and mousetweaks. It's to the point in the GNOME 2.22.0 development cycle where nearly all of the changes come down to bug-fixes and updated translations. The complete set of updated packages with their changes can be found on the gnome-announce-list. For some of the interesting improvements that can be found in GNOME 2.22.0, we had recently shared eight of the interesting improvements.

The release of GNOME 2.22 Beta 2 is planned for Wednesday, February 13. The first beta release had happened just two weeks ago. Planned for release in one month and one day on March 12, 2008 is the final release of GNOME 2.22.0.
