GNOME3 feature page - updated scoped and comments

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Greetings folks,

A few weeks back Matthias, Owen and several others +AFs-1+AF0 contributed to a
discussion geared towards better understanding the upstream GNOME3
release criteria, and how we can best adjust expectations for the
upcoming 3.0 and F15 releases.  I just merged the results of our
discussion into the GNOME3 Fedora feature page.  For a diff, see +AFs-2+AF0.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Gnome3

The notable changes I'd like to call out are ...

+AD0 Scope +AD0
The previous section listed many development and packaging milestones.
Using that information, it was hard to visualize the high-level goal for
the release.  This section attempts to articulate what a successful
GNOME3 release looks like to reduce as many surprises as possible come
GA time.

+AD0 Comments +ACY Discussion +AD0
Given that GNOME 3 offers a +ACo-dramatically+ACo different user experience
than GNOME 2.X, there are going to be plenty of users who are
surprised/disrupted by the changes.  As a result, we wanted to start
compiling common questions/workarounds/workflows that have come up so
far.  I anticipate referencing these a lot on irc/lists.  Perhaps, over
time these migrate into release notes.

Please take a moment to review the changes (again, see diff +AFs-2+AF0).  I
suspect there is a lot more room to set expectations for the upcoming
releases.  Feel free to contribute additional comments/ideas along those
lines.

Thanks,
James
