GNOME 2.29.5 Development Release
==========================

Here is the first GNOME release for year 2010 and fifth development release towards our 2.30
release that will happen in March 
2010. Your mission is easy: Go download it. Go compile it. Go test it.  And go hack on it, document
it, translate it, fix it.

With this release, some freezes are now in action :
* String Change Announcement Period : string changes must be announced to gnome-doc-list and
gnome-i18n.
* UI Change Announcement Period : UI changes must be announced to gnome-doc-list.

To compile GNOME 2.29.5, you can the jhbuild [1] modulesets [2] (which use the exact tarball
versions from the official release):

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

This release is a snapshot of 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.

For more information about 2.29, the full schedules, the official modules list and the proposed
modules list, please see our 2.29 page:
http://www.gnome.org/start/unstable/

Also take a look at the abbreviated schedule reminder page at:

We hope you'll love it,

The GNOME Release Team
