gnome-panel 2.10.2 has been released:
GNOME panel is, well, the panel in GNOME. You know, the bar you see at the top and at the bottom of your desktop, with menus and lots of applets on it. That's it. That's the panel.
This is the "Oula, il y avait plein de bogues..." release: it seems 2.10.1 had some serious bugs, but Mark was fantastic and saved us. I'd like to also thank Kjartan for his nice patches and all the translators who are very active!
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release.
This release is available at

OpenOffice.org build:

Evince is a document viewer for multiple document formats like pdf, postscript, and many others. The goal of evince is to replace the multiple document viewers that exist on the GNOME Desktop, like ggv, gpdf, and xpdf with a single simple application.

eggcups 0.19.1 has been released:
Eggcups is a number of printing-related things, rolled into one big happy fun ball. Primarily though, it keeps track of your print jobs.
Some other things it does are provide a "gnome-default-printer" command to pick your preferred printer, and optionally interact with hal-cups-utils for printer driver selection.
This is the first release with a tarball on ftp.gnome.org. It would be nice to get this in as an optional module in GNOME 2.12, so testing is appreciated.

Blam 1.8.2 "Do It Again And Do It Right" has been released
Blam is an RSS reader for the GNOME desktop.
Blam features a simple to use interface that lets you focus on the news items. It's also works especially well for reading planet feeds where the same items might be aggregated across several planets.
This release is mainly a bug fix and cleanup release. The number one bug fix is that it should now be much harder to corrupt the collections database which resulted in the default collections file being read and stored some times.
Another mayor change is that HTML will now be stripped from the titles in feeds which resulted in a lot of weird looking titles.

This is a small Gnome applet that is like Google's Deskbar, but it 1) runs on Linux, and 2) can use search engines other than Google.
WHAT'S NEW:
Most notably, the applet now works with GNOME 2.10 (and its new panel/applet focus behavior).
This means, however, that dependency versions have been bumped. In particular, unstable (version 2.11.2) gnome-python-extras is required, for previously un-wrapped API.
