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).
The FreeBSD GNOME team would also like to thank our various testers and

Phonetic Alphabet) Unicode 5 range, written in Keyman keyboard
language. The keyboard is developed by SIL Non-Roman Script Initiative
(NRSI). This port installs the keyboard so that it can be used through
SCIM KMFL IMEngine (textproc/scim-kmfl-imengine).
This open source keyboard is provided under SIL's Freeware licence
(http://www.sil.org/computing/catalog/freeware.html) which makes it
free for personal use only and non-distributable. Besides,
<quot>If you plan to redistribute your modified keyboard you must

systems. KMFL is being jointly developed by SIL International
(http://www.sil.org) and Tavultesoft (http://www.tavultesoft.com).
SCIM KMFL IMEngine allows you to use KMN keyboards (compiled with
textproc/kmflcomp) through standard SCIM interface.
The powerful KMN keyboard language supports contextual deadkeys,
pre- and post-processing of keystrokes, rules grouping, 'storing'
of character classes for use in similar rules, custom and Unicode
character constants, SIL Ethnologue language codes, etc.
Official Tavultesoft repository contains keyboards that cover more
than 220 languages. Significant number of them are open source.
Ported keyboards are textproc/scim-kmfl-*.

Some features are Unicode normalization, stripping of default ignorable
characters, case folding and detection of grapheme cluster boundaries.
A special character mapping is available, which converts for example the
characters "Hyphen" (U+2010), "Minus" (U+2212) and
"Hyphen-Minus" (U+002D, ASCII Minus) all into the ASCII minus sign, to
make them equal for comparisons.
