This was a rather poorly done April Fools as it had no outlandish elements (usually introduced towards the end), and it wasn't amusing or shocking. Unless you closely follow the GNOME project in detail, it just seemed like another boring 'release delayed' announcement. Contrast this with many other April Fools stories from Google et al.
So I can quite understand why LWN posted this as a serious story - the fault lies with the author of the announcement...
