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
contributors:

PRs fixed in this release:
111272, 113470, 115995, 116338
What has changed:
* Support for LiveJournal, Blogger, MovableType, Advogato, and Atom journals
(systems based off these are also supported, including WordPress and Drupal)
* The ability to post, edit, delete, and view recent entries
* Integrated spellchecking and HTML syntax highlighting
* Offline composition and editing
* Automatic recovery in the event of a crash
* Journal system extensions, including LiveJournal security groups and
MovableType categories
deskutils/drivel is the only port that has pkg-plist change, so bump the
PORTREVISION. The rest else should be no function change, but just remove the
patches to allow gnomehack takes care of it. Keep in mind, I only touch those
ports that already have gnomehack.
