I decided that I should blog about Ubuntu/GNOME cools changes, so for this week:

  • Some packages update:

    - glib/pango

    - metacity (constraints changes, with edge resistance)

    - gtk-engines (clearlooks using cairo, with nice animations)

    - xchat-gnome (sets away status when gnome-screensaver runs, uses libnotify)

    - packaged nautilus-actions

  • The menus have been reworked (simplification, MenusRevisited)

  • A GConf transition, following the Debian changes:

    - a package split to fix the circular Depends issue.

    - merge of the gconf directory trees for better performance,

    - a new framework to easily set up defaults in Debian packages

  • An Ubuntu Desktop Team meeting

    • Latest blog entries     Older blog entries

    New Advogato Features

    New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.

    Keep up with the latest Advogato features by reading the Advogato status blog.

    If you're a C programmer with some spare time, take a look at the mod_virgule project page and help us with one of the tasks on the ToDo list!
