Re: GNOME 3.34 released
In terms of features, this has to be one of the biggest Gnome releases in years. Looking forward to using it when Arch Linux decides to release it in full... they keep breaking it up into segmented updates for some reason resulting in all sorts of breakage and mismatching between the old and new versions.

GNOME 3.34 released
The GNOME Project is proud to announce the release of GNOME 3.34, Θεσσαλονίκη (Thessaloniki). This release brings performance improvements in the shell, Drag-And-Drop in the overview, improved mouse and keybord accessibility, previews in the background panel, support for systemd user sessions, and more. Improvements to core GNOME applications include new icons, sandboxed browsing in Web, gapless playback in Music, support for bidirectional text in the Terminal, more featured applications in Software, and more. For more information about the changes in GNOME 3.34, you can visit the release notes: https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.34/ GNOME 3.34 will be available shortly in many distributions. If you want to try it today, you can use the Fedora 31 beta that will be available soon or the openSUSE nightly live images which include GNOME 3.34. https://www.gnome.org/getting-gnome/ http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/31/Workstation/x86_64/iso/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/Medias/images/iso/?P=GNOME_Next* To try the very latest developments in GNOME, you can also use Fedora Silverblue, whose rawhide branch always includes the latest GNOME packages. https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/rawhide/latest-Fedora-Rawhide/compose/Silverblue/x86_64/iso/ If you are interested in building applications for GNOME 3.34, you can use the GNOME 3.34 Flatpak SDK, which is available in the sdk.gnome.org repository. This six-month effort wouldn't have been possible without the whole GNOME community, made of contributors and friends from all around the world: developers, designers, documentation writers, usability and accessibility specialists, translators, maintainers, students, system administrators, companies, artists, testers and last, but not least, our users. GNOME would not exist without all of you. Thank you to everyone! Our next release, GNOME 3.36, is planned for March 2020. Until then, enjoy GNOME 3.34! , the GNOME Release Team ___ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
