GNOME 2.25.2 Development Release
================================

Early Xmas present! 2.25.2 is here. This is the second development release
towards our 2.26 release that will happen in March 2009. By now, development
is well under way, and we've already made good progress on some of the
goals that we've set ourselves for 2.26 (http://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals).
Keep up the good work !

To compile GNOME 2.25.2, you can use GARNOME [1] (which supports users
and has additional/different modules available), or the jhbuild [2]
modulesets [3] (which use the exact tarball versions from the official
release):

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
--------------------------

This release is a snapshot of development code. Although it is
buildable and usable, it is primarily intended for testing and hacking
purposes. GNOME uses odd minor version numbers to indicate
development status.

For more information about 2.25, the full schedules, the official
modules list and the proposed modules list, please see our 2.25 page:

We hope you'll love it,
