Release Team Proposes Gnome 3.0 Plans

benuski writes "Today at GUADEC, the Gnome User and Developer European Conference, the gtk+ team announced their plans for gtk+ 3.0; immediately after, the Gnome release team announced their plans for Gnome 2.30 to be changed into Gnome 3.0. This would mean a release date a year and a half to a year in the future. Details are short at the moment, but the Gnome team seems to be following in KDE's footsteps, but hopefully will avoid the problems that plagued KDE 4.0's release."

    Luckily for Gnome, when 3.0 ships missing a lot of features, nobody will notice.

    Woah. That craps all over the iPhone from a substantial height and makes aero look pretty silly too. Is it actually practical? Who cares!

    I have yet to figure out what the Apple fascination with the prefix i- on absolutely everything is supposed to signify?
