Are there other important improvements in other libraries than GLib and GTK+? Because having a single item for GtkSourceView is not a good idea, in that case it's better to just talk about GLib and GTK+. Note that the release notes are now being translated by the localisation teams, so it's a bit difficult to make major changes.

If it's just moving things around, it doesn't change anything for translators. If it's removing something, it's less work for those that haven't translated it yet (and not a real problem if it has already been translated). Also note that since technical stuff is more difficult to understand, it is usually translated last in the release notes as translators want to take the time to think about it. -- Alexandre Franke GNOME i18n coordinator ___ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list

If there are other important changes in other libraries, I think it's a good idea to add them in the release notes. It would be just two or three more lines to translate. But it should be done as soon as possible so you have the time to update the translation. Or it doesn't matter to me if GtkSourceView is not mentioned in the release notes, so you can just remove the line. GNOME-wide, it's not really important. -- Sébastien ___ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list

Re: 3.14 Release Notes
This is a reminder that I'm still looking for details for the release notes. I need more than just a bullet for each feature - some description is essential. Notable absences from the release notes: * No details on gestures - which gestures are supported by which apps? Do they work automatically in other apps? etc. * Not much on the shell. I know we're not expecting big changes here, but there could be groups of bugs that are worth mentioning. I'm especially interested in multimonitor improvements. * Videos, Boxes, Web and Documents are missing. * Photos and Music seems pretty empty.
