GNOME 2.30 Steps Closer To Becoming A Reality

Posted by Michael Larabel on December 26, 2009

Replacing the recently released GNOME 2.29.3, the GNOME 2.29.4 version is now available. GNOME 2.29.4 is still considered developmental quality but represents a milestone that is a step closer to the final release of GNOME 2.30, which will come in March of 2010.

GNOME 2.29.4 is carrying the Nautilus changes for GNOME 3.0, the GNOME Control Center has been much-improved, and there are many other changes internally and externally for this newest GNOME 2.29 test release.

Full details are available in the release announcement for GNOME 2.29.4.
