Weekend coming up fast!

Didn’t mention that Monday was my youngest brother David’s birthday, hope you had a great day mate. Submitted en_GB translations for evolution-brainread, jumpnbumpmenu andgtk+. 2.7.3 is up on f.g.o, a bit behind schedule, but 2.7.4 should be along soon, so I’m going to finish off ULBG for 2.7.2 and then go for 2.7.4.

The future

Roger: Yes, the future does look bleak, but if Americans do the Right ThingTM this autumn, it could be brighter. One day I’ve going to replace the batteries in my Palm M105 without losing all my data…

Evolution 1.5

Is very nice indeed. Using version 1.5.90 at home now, and, well, it’s just good. It works, it’s quite nippy, even with debugging enabled. I do miss the shortcuts bar, but I dare say I’ll get used to the new way of working. Looking forward to uploading it, along with the rest of ULB GNOME …

GNOME 2.7 status

Looking good, I now have a fully working desktop install, and all the multimedia stuff is built. All that really remains is to build the various small apps that are patr of the official desktop release (GEdit, eog, fileroller, etc…), sort out the default theming, and create the ulb-gnome package to depend on all the …
