GNOME 3.20 Beta 2 Released

Written by Michael Larabel in GNOME on 4 March 2016 at 06:59 AM EST. Add A Comment

Prolific GNOME developer Matthias Clasen has announced the release of the GNOME 3.20 Beta 2 (v3.19.91) Milestone.

GNOME 3.19/3.20 development continues under an API/ABI freeze, UI freeze, and feature freeze, so this new release isn't particularly exciting as the focus has mostly been on bug fixes. However, there have been some notable changes like the GNOME Mutter nested Wayland session switch, NetworkManager DHCPv6 work, primary selection protocol support for Wayland, and other changes.

The GNOME 3.20 Beta 2 release announcement can be read in full via the mailing list. GNOME 3.20 is expected to be officially released on 23 March while before that is still the GNOME 3.20 release candidate.
