If you don't have it marked down on your calendar, GNOME 2.22.0 is scheduled to be released this Wednesday, March 12. GNOME 2.22.0 is the first stable release in the GNOME 2.22 series that represents all of the work made in the GNOME 2.21 development series. Back in January we talked about the major improvements in GNOME 2.22. Among the additions to this desktop environment include Epiphany now supporting a WebKit back-end, Cheese photo/video web-cam viewer, integration of the Mousetweaks utility, Vinagre VNC client, and Totem movie player improvements. Today is the source package check-in deadline for GNOME 2.22.0, with the announcements being available on the gnome-announce-list.

Following Wednesday's release of GNOME 2.22.0, the GNOME 2.22.1 point release is planned for early April while all of the major development efforts will turn to GNOME 2.24, which should be out this September.
