Gnome 2.10 Sneak Peek

spectre_be writes "Davyd Madeley wrote a Sneak Peek at Gnome 2.10, scheduled for release on the March 9, 2005. Looks like the new release-policy is starting to pay of, as several existing utilities get enhancements and a couple of new ones are added. Also (finally) a mozilla-stylee type-ahead find has been implemented in Gnome's Open/Save dialog. Together with OpenOffice.org 2.0's scheduled release and Novell's Mono coming up to speed, will 2005 prove to be the year of Gnome?" Update: 01/18 01:40 GMT by T : Oops - the "2-point" got chopped off in the headline; still a while until GNOME 10.

  1. Gnome 10? by Matt+Perry · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Gnome 10? But it's really 2.10? Is that like Java 1.2 is Really Java 2 and Java 1.5 is really Java 5? Ow, my head! Please tell me this is just a typo.

    Which also reminds me that the Gnome folks have nothing to say when making fun of KDE app naming :)

    It's gonna be a great year.

    Not just for Gnome, but for Linux.
    2005 is the year of Linux on the desktop.
