	Just to let everyone know Gnome 2.2 is now in moonbase.  I would like
to add that we are probobly the 1st Distro to announce and have Gnome
2.2 as a desktop environment.  If anyone has any questions please let me

announcement from the Gnome team below.  I hope evryone enjoys this and
just to let everyone know there is a Lunar Gnome 2.2 desktop amongst the

                              Announcing...
               
               ==============================================
               The GNOME 2.2.0 Desktop and Developer Platform
               ==============================================

Five months ago, we were only just beginning to recover from the
enormous task that was GNOME 2.0. We were committed to a six month
release cycle for 2.2, and after such a long period of development and
point-releases, we were excited to be working on new features again. We
were, as the release code names suggested, "Back to the Future".

Today, we bring you the fruits of our first six-month-turnaround
release! Not content with mere success, we've managed to squeeze the six
month process into five, raise the bar for performance and stability and
add a host of new features and tools to the Desktop. Perhaps this is a
dangerous precedent!

You'll find plenty of information about GNOME 2.2.0 in our extensive
release notes, linked from the 2.2 start page. You can also check out
our gallery of cool screenshots from dedicated GNOME users and testers!

The release team would like to thank all of the hackers, documentors,
testers, translators, maintainers, usability and accessibility dudes,
sysadmins, companies, artists and users who contributed so much to GNOME
2.2. We hope everyone is immensely proud of this release - it rocks way
hard. :-)

Whilst you are enjoying 2.2, the GNOME development team will be running
back to the coalface, eager to work on the next release - in fact, we've
already started! Stay tuned for more information about the 2.3
development series, coming soon!

                "Where we're going, we don't need roads..."

- The GNOME Release Team
