GNOME 3590 Published by

GNOME 3.7.1 has been released



GNOME 3.7 development is getting underway, with the 3.7.1 snapshot
that is marking the beginning of this development cycle. Features are
still being proposed and discussed [1]. This release allows some early
glimpses of whats to come [2].

To compile GNOME 3.7.1, you can the jhbuild [3] modulesets [4] (which
use the exact tarball versions from the official release). A slight
complication is that gnome-control-center 3.7.1 does not build against
network-manager-gnome 0.9.6.2 - see [5] for details and a patch.

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
--------------------------

This release is a snapshot of early development code. Although it is
buildable and usable, it is primarily intended for testing and hacking
purposes. GNOME uses odd minor version numbers to indicate development status.
