GNOME 2.24 roadmap released
The roadmap for GNOME 2.24 (and beyond) is out. There will be a lot of stuff in the next release, including Epiphany's WebKit migration, "unified account management" in Evolution, XRandR 1.2 support, Empathy, Conduit, and a decision on a new distributed version control system.

GNOME 2._24_ Posted Apr 29, 2008 14:29 UTC (Tue) by louie (subscriber, #3285) [Link] 2.24, not 2.4. 2.4 was released in Sept. 2003.
GNOME 2._24_ Posted Apr 29, 2008 14:32 UTC (Tue) by corbet (editor, #1) [Link] -ENOCOFFEE. Fixed now, sorry for the confusion.
GNOME 2.24 roadmap released Posted Apr 29, 2008 18:46 UTC (Tue) by ami.ganguli (guest, #9613) [Link] Any idea why the WebKit migration? I guess it might be nice to have easy access to a Safari-like rending engine to test against.
GNOME 2.24 roadmap released Posted Apr 29, 2008 18:54 UTC (Tue) by jwb (guest, #15467) [Link] WebKit is just easier to integrate, since it's designed to be embedded and Gecko really is not designed for embedding. There was a long article on the topic here at LWN recently.
Why the webkit migration Posted Apr 29, 2008 18:57 UTC (Tue) by corbet (editor, #1) [Link] See WebKit rising, published here at the beginning of this month.
Why the webkit migration Posted Apr 30, 2008 5:48 UTC (Wed) by ami.ganguli (guest, #9613) [Link] Thanks. Also read the announcement of it that was linked from the article. Interesting stuff.
GNOME 2.24 roadmap released Posted Apr 29, 2008 20:34 UTC (Tue) by bgoglin (subscriber, #7800) [Link] RandR 1.2 support, not XRandR. xrandr is the command line tool to play with the RandR X extension.
DSCM Posted May 4, 2008 16:33 UTC (Sun) by gvy (guest, #11981) [Link] Probably 'twill be "bzr vs git", maybe "vs hg" a bit. bzr so far seems heavily broken to me, but guess that's quite probable *somehow*...
DSCM Posted May 11, 2008 9:03 UTC (Sun) by ovitters (subscriber, #27950) [Link] What do you mean 'heavily broken'? It is used for various projects, so it isn't broken. Please be concrete.
