Scratch the desktop metaphor bit. ;)

It's true that there's an online focus in 3.2 though. Aside from web
applications there's also GNOME Online Accounts and initial versions
of new GNOME applications (Documents and Contacts) that are designed
with online integration at the forefront. That initiative is important
to ensure that Free Software remains relevant to users, and it's
something that will continue with subsequent releases.

Thanks André for pointing this out. This isn't our last word about web 
integration
in the desktop, it's just our first steps in this area.

Maybe something like "In this release we are starting the pillars about how the 
web can be intregated flawlessly into the desktop metaphore" could be more 
precise (if my poor English doesn't suck too much)

Cheers,

Well, Epiphany has a webapp mode and we have google integration for
contacts and documents, but that's it basically.
I wouldn't call this "web integration" (yet).

Hi Karen,

IMO, web integration in the desktop is the hot new feature of GNOME 3.2.

take a look to the release 
notes http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.2/

Cheers,

interview for SCALE website

2011-09-18 Thread Karen Sandler
hi everyone!

Looks like the SCALE guys want to interview me for their website. I
mentioned that I'll want to talk about the GNOME 3.2 release, and I know
they want to get to the medical devices issues. I'm planning to try to
highlight the nonprofit side of software, and that having great, easy to
use software like GNOME is essential to preserving freedom in all of our
computing.

What points do you think I should be sure to hit?

thanks!
karen
