Officially, this is mostly a polishing release in preparation for GNOME 3.0
due in about a year.
On the FreeBSD front, though, a lot went into this release. Major thanks
goes to kwm and avl who did a lot of the porting work for this release.
In particular, kwm brought in Evolution MAPI support for better Microsoft
Exchange integration. Avl made sure that the new gobject introspection
repository ports were nicely compartmentalized so that large dependencies
aren't brought in wholesale.
But, every GNOME team member (ahze, avl, bland, kwm, mezz, and myself)
contributed to this release.
Other major improvements include an updated HAL with better volume
probing code, ufsid integration, and support for volume names containing
spaces (big thanks to J.R. Oldroyd); a new WebKit; updated AbiWord;
an updated Gimp; and a preview of the new GNOME Shell project (thanks to
Pawel Worach).
The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like to that the following additional
contributors to this release whose patches and testing really helped
make it a success:
Andrius Morkunas
Dominique Goncalves
Eric L. Chen
J.R. Oldroyd
Joseph S. Atkinson
Li
Pawel Worach
Romain Tartière
Thomas Vogt
Yasuda Keisuke
Rui Paulo
Martin Wilke
(and an extra shout out to miwi and pav for pointyhat runs)
We would like to send this release out to Alexander Loginov (avl) in
hopes that he feels better soon.

Comments from the announcement:
Version 2.5.28 is a beta maintenance release that fixes a couple of
bugs and adds some minor features. Please be aware that any features
introduced in the 2.5.x development versions may be renamed, changed or
removed without notice before 2.6.0.
* New features:
- New differentiated options for SnapAttraction when snapping
against screen edges:
"None", "ScreenWindows", "ScreenIcons", "ScreenAll"
- New option to the BugOpts command: TransliterateUtf8.
* Bug fixes:
- Fixed non-visible Qt windows after a Qt deferred map (e.g.
Skype profile windows).
- Fixed the use of the X-resource "fvwmstyle".
- Fixed segmentation fault in FvwmEvent when parsing an
undefined event name, or an undefined environment variable
to the RPlayHost option.
- Fixed the events startup, shutdown and unknown in FvwmEvent.
- Fvwm now retains utf8 window names when the WM_NAME changes,
and the utf8 name converted to the default charset match
the old WM_NAME.
- Fixed the options RPlayVolume and RPlayPriority in FvwmEvent.
- Fixed SnapAttraction: Option SameType/Icons/Windows did
falsely not affect conditions of option "Screen" and option
"SameType" snapped falsely icons and windows together.
- Fixed a problem where modules would get incorrect stacking
information if many windows were restacked at the same time.
- Fixed BugOpts parsing of more than one option at a time and
restoring of default value for the last option
in the command line when omitted.
- 64 bit fix for setting EWMH _NET_WM_ICON property on windows.
Run past: marcus (portsmgr hat)
Feature safe: Yes
- Since default layout boxes actually just look ugly, but are still useful,
rework previous solution: instead of omitting them completely, draw them
in a slim fashion. Also, give option a better name (SLIM_LAYOUT_BOX)
- Apparently, Xmb* -> Xutf8* conversion was only safe thing to do with UTF-8
locales; those who use traditional (8-bit) locales and experience problems
with fonts should try rebuilding the port with UTF8_TEXT option unset
- Since our `devel/9base' port installs rc(1) but not read(1), it is of
little use as rdep anyway (`devel/plan9port' installs more complete set
of things, but is unfortunately broken on 8.0+)
- While here, pacify portlint(1) and remove _XOPEN_SOURCE definition to
prevent some warnings
. Move the include of <bsd.port.pre.mk> to prior to attempting to detect
a patch that includes ${PREFIX}. This fixes the detection and unbreaks
the packing list.
-Update libtool and libltdl to 2.2.6a.
-Remove devel/libtool15 and devel/libltdl15.
-Fix ports build with libtool22/libltdl22.
-Bump ports that depend on libltdl22 due to shared library version change.
-Explain what to do update in the UPDATING.
It has been tested with GNOME2, XFCE4, KDE3, KDE4 and other many wm/desktop
and applications in the runtime.
With help: marcus and kwm
Pointyhat-exp: a few times by pav
Tested by: pgollucci, "Romain Tartière" <romain@blogreen.org>, and
a few MarcusCom CVS users. Also, I might have missed a few.

of the way so that valuable screen real estate can be used for much more
important stuff. It has sane defaults and does not require one to learn a
language to do any configuration. It was written by hackers for hackers and it
strives to be small, compact and fast.
It was largely inspired by xmonad and dwm. Both are fine products but suffer
from things like: crazy-unportable-language-syndrome, silly defaults,
asymmetrical window layout, "how hard can it be?" and good old NIH.
Nevertheless dwm was a phenomenal resource and many good ideas and code was
borrowed from it. On the other hand xmonad has great defaults, key bindings
and xinerama support but is crippled by not being written in C.
