FreeBSD. The official GNOME 2.22 release notes can be found at
http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.22/ . On the FreeBSD front,
this release features an updated hal port with support for video4linux
devices, DRM (Direct Rendering), and better support of removable media. Work
is also underway to tie webkit more closely into GNOME. As part of the
GNOME 2.22 upgrade, GStreamer received a rather large upgrade as well.
Be sure to consult UPDATING on the proper steps to upgrade all of your
GNOME ports.

The primary feature of this release is a rewrite of the scripting engine for
better correctness. The ports are also improved to remove dependencies that
haven't existed since the 0.4 series.
Also, add dependency on ffmpeg now that our version is new enough. Most
importantly, fix linking so that the mozilla plugin resolves swfdec's js
calls into the local hacked spidermonkey instead of mozilla's. This greatly
improves the stability of swfdec-mozilla.
