GNOME 3589 Published by

GNOME 3.0.2 has been released



This is the second update to GNOME 3.0. It contains the usual mixture
of bug fixes, translations updates and documentation improvements that
are the hallmark of the rock solid stable GNOME releases, many thanks to our
wonderful team of GNOME contributors!

Also, thanks to all the people that help me in this my first GNOME release :-w:

Remember that ftp.gnome.org will switch to tar.xz + tar.bz2 in the
next GNOME release (3.2).
ftpadmin will automatically recompress anything into .tar.xz and
.tar.bz2. So no changes for anyone
uploading tarballs. The script deals with the compression formats.
Anyway, to speed up uploads and avoid recompression by ftpadmin, you
can put this in you configure.ac:

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([1.11 no-dist-gzip dist-xz tar-ustar])
