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

Pawel Worach
Romain Tartière
Thomas Vogt

(and an extra shout out to miwi and pav for pointyhat runs)

hopes that he feels better soon.

data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is
easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the
JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December
1999.JSON is a text format that is completely language independent
but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of
languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, TCL, and many
others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.
This package provides a simple encoder and decoder for JSON notation. It
is intended for use with client-side Javascript applications that make
use of HTTPRequest to perform server communication functions - data can
be encoded into JSON notation for use in a client-side javascript, or
decoded from incoming Javascript requests. JSON format is native to
Javascript,and can be directly eval()'ed with no further parsing overhead.

Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
- Remove CONFIGURE_TARGET hack in various bsd.*.mk
- USE_GNOME=gnometarget is now an no-op

Firefox 3 needs it. Orignal, the shared library was bumped and ahze has
added a new feature in our USE_GNOME=ltverhack by can control the number

ltverhack:N. Right now pixman has USE_GNOME=ltverhack:9 to make it stays
same at libpixman-1.so.9. If anyone want to use ltverhack:N in one of your
port, you need to make sure the ABI doesn't change to use it..

Firefox 3 needs it. We have updated most cairo binding ports too.

graphics/poppler: Update to 0.8.3

The shared libraries version have been changed. All ports that depend on
poppler have PORTREVISION bump. The graphics/py-poppler has been updated
to 0.8.1 to work with newer poppler better. As for the poppler-qt, there
is no shared library version change.

www/firefox3 and gecko ports related: Update to 3.0 final
-------------------------------------------------------
The bsd.gecko.mk has been moved from www/mozilla/ to Mk/. You no longer
need to include bsd.gecko.mk/Makefile.common by manual. We are keeping it
in backward compatibility, so the rest ports won't be break. We haven't
add some other ports to have Firefox 3 support yet, so feel free to send
us patch or commit it by yourself (to committers). However, view in
bsd.gecko.mk for document.

GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ . Beyond that, this update
includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
hierarchy. We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD. This will mean some
user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
more details.
This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
to make it happen successfully. Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
pointyhat (respectively).
