GNOME 2: A Year Later (OSNews)

[Posted June 5, 2003 by ris]

OSNews reviews GNOME 2.2.1. "The absolutely great thing about the HIG on Gnome is that it has won the hearts of all its maintainers, so when people are suggesting applications to become part of the main distribution of Gnome, they are instructed to HIG-ify their applications. It is absolutely imperative that developers read, understand and comply with the HIG as it is for the good of the platform in the long run. I like that."

I see that Gnumeric finally, as of 1.1.17, obeys the HIG in its dialog box button labels, now saying (e.g.) "Save" and "Discard" instead of "Yes" and "No". I suppose Evolution 1.4 will follow suit as well. Good!
