[News]

here's the second stable release of the gnome-utils package for the
GNOME 2.24 release cycle.

as usual, you can download it from:

http://download.gnome.org/sources/gnome-utils/2.24/

first of all, I'd like to get a round of applause for Cosimo Cecchi, the
newest addition to the maintainers team of the gnome-utils package;
Cosimo ported gnome-screenshot to GIO and to GDK in the last development
cycle. Not happy with that, he cut the dependency on libgnome and
libgnomeui on most of the modules inside gnome-utils, fixed bugs
everywhere, and is now busy cleaning^Wrewriting logview. make sure to
buy him a beer at the next GUADEC.
