Gnome GNOME 2.20.0 beta 2 (2.19.91) has been released. "This is our eighth development release on our road towards GNOME 2.20.0, which will be released in September 2007. All new features should all be there, so your mission is simple : Go download it. Go compile it. Go test it. And go hack on it, document it, translate it, fix it."

One of the few complaints I've had about Gnome is that there were getting a ridiculous amount of capplets in the control center. Hopefully distributions like Fedora will stop putting all that stuff in sub-menus like 'personal, look and feel, internet and network' etc. because the stock Gnome in 2.20 will have eliminated a lot of those dialogs by combining them into the same ones. Like for example under appearance you can now select background, mouse pointers, plus theme, etc. Under Ubuntu they even put the Desktop Effects as a tab there. Pretty sweet cleanup progress.
