This six-month effort wouldn't have been possible without the whole GNOME community, made of contributors and friends from all around the world: developers, designers, documentation writers, usability and accessibility specialists, translators, maintainers, students, system administrators, companies, artists, testers and last, but not least, users. GNOME would not exist without all of you. Thank you to everyone!
This release was created at the ATypI conference in Montreal, Canada. Thanks to our font friends for this lovely event!
Our next release, GNOME 3.28, is planned for March 2018. Until then,
enjoy GNOME 3.26!
