The 2.17.1 release is an unstable release of GDM with the following new features. I wanted to do another release since 2.17.0 was crashing out-of-the-box due to the first issue listed below. Also this release has some really nice new usability improvements and custom command support. Read below...

Sysprof is a sampling system-wide CPU profiler for Linux.

Sysprof uses a Linux kernel module to profile the entire system, not just an individual application. Sysprof handles threads and shared libraries, and applications do not have to be recompiled or instrumented. In fact they don't even have to be restarted.

This is the first release of the development Glade 3.1 series, its a little early - but I wanted people to get a chance to try out the embedding and the UI sooner than later. In this cycle we plan to be very flexable on the UI and hopefully get to try out some different scenarios in action and thus improve the general usability of the Glade frontend.

A bug has also been opened to track the development of the new ui:

What is Glade ?
==============
Glade is a RAD tool to enable quick & easy development of user interfaces for the Gtk+ toolkit and the GNOME desktop environment. The user interfaces designed in Glade are stored in XML format, enabling easy integration with external tools. In particular libglade can load the XML files and create the interfaces at runtime. The DTD for the XML files is included with libglade, and is also at http://glade.gnome.org/glade-2.0.dtd. Other tools are available which can turn the XML files into source code in languages such as C++, Perl and Python.
