Today, the GNOME Project celebrates the release of GNOME 2.22, the latest version of the popular, multi-platform free desktop environment and of its developer platform. Released on schedule, to the day, GNOME 2.22 builds on top of a long series of successful six months releases to offer the best experience to users and developers.

We are pleased to announce the release of GARNOME 2.22.0. This release incorporates the GNOME 2.22.0 Desktop and Developer Platform, fine-tuned with love by the GARNOME Team.

It includes updates and fixes after the GNOME freeze, together with a host of third-party GNOME packages, Bindings and the Mono(tm) Platform. This release is the first of a new stable GNOME branch and ships with the latest and greatest releases.

As usual, you can get the tarball directly from the gnome.org site:

If you got any issues with this release, feel free to contact the GARNOMEies in the #garnome channel on GIMPNet (irc://irc.gnome.org), where we hang out, or post to the mailing list.
