Well actually it is a gnome 2.12 prerelease tour, but as breezy will have gnome 2.12, this covers pretty much of the visual changes you will see in breezy:

Looking good! :grin:

The Documentation Team will also be producing a guide that shows all the cool things in Breezy, as some things, like Gnome power manager and NetworkManager (possibly) are not upstream gnome stuff.

That's awesomeness. I think that I'm gonna like breezy...a lot and I already can't imagine them improving on Hoary so seeing them use that and whatever else they throw in, it will be sweet. I was going to skip upgrading for a while but I think I may get this done upon release. :smile: now to wait for that breezy documentation.

Is it just wishful thinking on my part, or is font rendering actually that sharp? :smile:

Could be our anxiety but yes, I think it's looking better.

That's looking really nice... But what about this fabled Network Manager?
Where can I find out more about that?
Regardless, It may draw me back from my [Open/Flux]Box addiction.
mm.. *Box....

One thing not mentioned on that page, and already working in current breezy: Dragging text to a Nautilus window will create a text document. That's pretty nice.

Just install "nautilus-sendto". IIRC, it's even in hoary universe.

Evince is nice. I use it on a daily basis.
I would honestly say that it is the best oss pdf viewer to date.

I like what I see there :)
And I'm sure gonna love Evince and vertical panels :D

You can already do vertical panels, but if you have the menu applet (foot, applications, places, system) it doesn't work as well as it should.

You can already do evince (from backports) works great :-D

The only software that is not 100% open source on my box is flash and java, If GNOME (as well as KDE/Linux in general) keeps developing at the current rate, I'm sure we'll find solutions to those as well.

Heh. I honestly don't have a clue. Makes me wonder....
I know I don't have any registration nag windows that pop up. :)
