<title>Announcing GNOME 2.28.1. for FreeBSD!</title>

<p>Presenting GNOME 2.28.1 for FreeBSD. The official release
|
||||||
|
notes for this release can be found at

. Officially, this is mostly a polishing release in preparation
|
||||||
|
for GNOME 3.0 due in about a year.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>On the FreeBSD front, though, a lot went into this release.
|
||||||
|
Major thanks goes to kwm and avl who did a lot of the porting
|
||||||
|
work for this release. In particular, kwm brought in Evolution
|
||||||
|
MAPI support for better Microsoft Exchange integration. Avl
|
||||||
|
made sure that the new gobject introspection repository ports
|
||||||
|
were nicely compartmentalized so that large dependencies aren't
|
||||||
|
brought in wholesale.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>But, every GNOME team member (ahze, avl, bland, kwm, mezz,
|
||||||
|
and myself) contributed to this release.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>Other major improvements include an updated HAL with better
|
||||||
|
volume probing code, ufsid integration, and support for volume
|
||||||
|
names containing spaces (big thanks to J.R. Oldroyd); a new
|
||||||
|
WebKit; updated AbiWord; an updated Gimp; and a preview of the
|
||||||
|
new GNOME Shell project (thanks to Pawel Worach).</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like to that the following
|
||||||
|
additional contributors to this release whose patches and
|
||||||
|
testing really helped make it a success:</p>
