GNOME 2.8 Release Candidate 1 (2.7.92)

Ja ku arrin Release Candidate e parë për GNOME2.8. Ky version shënon hapin e parë drejt versionit përfundimtar që parashikohet të lëshohet rreth datës 15 shtator.

Përfitoj nga rasti të ftoj të gjithë përdoruesit shqipfolës të GNU/Linux të ndihmojnë në testimin e përkthimit në shqip për versionin e ri: këto dy javë të mbetura, grupi i përkthimit, do t'ja kushtojë vetëm gjetjes dhe korrigjimit të gabimeve të mundëshme (përkthimi në shqip për GNOME 2.8 është në 100%).
Ndihma e testuesve nevoitet këto ditë më shumë se çdo herë!

Në vazhdim, lajmërimi i plotë:

Notes about the new MIME system
-------------------------------

As of GNOME 2.7.4, the old MIME system was replaced with a new shared
specification found on freedesktop.org. There are a couple comments to go
along with this:

 * In order the to see any applications available, they must be registered
 with the MIME system. This can be done by getting the latest verion of
 desktop-file-utils and running:

 update-desktop-database $PREFIX/applications

 jhbuild in CVS has been modified to build this, and we expect
 applications to do this on install automatically in the future.

 * The new user interface is modeled after the proposal at:

 http://www.gnome.org/~jrb/files/mime/

 The old File Types capplet has been removed in favor of a nautilus-only
 interface.


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. Like the
Linux kernel, GNOME uses odd minor version numbers to indicate development
status. Please check the 2.7 start page for more information:

Happy testing!
