GNOME-2.10.1: the short take

[Joseph E. Sacco, Ph.D.]

I am now running version 2.10.1 of the GNOME desktop, built using
GARNOME

        http://cipherfunk.org/garnome/
        

Version 2.10.1 is a "bug fix" version of the 2.10.x.y series.  

The current "gar-ball",

        ftp://cipherfunk.org/pub/tarballs/garnome/garnome-2.10.1.tar.bz2

"mostly" builds and installs without incident. Discussions of "mostly"
can be found at:

        http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/garnome-list

The menu standard adopted by GNOME and KDE is evolving

        http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Standards_2fmenu_2dspec
        
gnome-menus-2.10.1 is evolving along with the standard. At some point in
time a standard menu editing tool will be made available that will allow
users and administrators to manipulate the contents of menus.  For now,
menu contents must be manipulated by hand.  The menu spec provides
enough information on how to do this.
