Developer Platform?Developer Platform?Posted Feb 6, 2003 11:30 UTC (Thu) by jdub (subscriber, #27)In reply to: Developer Platform? by pointwood Parent article: GNOME 2.2.0 released The "Desktop" part of the release is the basic desktop environment and utilities -> definitely for users, it rocks way hard. The "Developer Platform" part of the release is the set of libraries for which we guarantee API/ABI compatibility during the 2.x releases -> definitely for developers. Because the Desktop is based on the Developer Platform, and is usually the first large software stack to use the new features available, we release them together. Then third party developers are able to target the 2.2 release, being certain of the functionality that is available to them.
