"Hello All,
we are pleased to announce the release of Gnome Panel 3.8.0. This is what the "Gnome Flashback" team has been
working on in the last months. We are glad to achieve compatibility with the Gnome 3.8 stack just hours
before the final Gnome 3.10 release. ;-)
This is the first release that ships a session descriptor and wrapper script for the "Gnome Flashback"
session. This is similar to the standalone fallback session previously shipped in Debian / Ubuntu. As
integration with the rest of the Gnome stack has suffered somewhat, this is mainly aimed at distributions
that still want to support a metacity / gnome-panel based desktop (e.g. for LTSP installations). Some
integration work may be necessary - for example, nautilus 3.8 no longer draws the X root window background.
The Gnome Flashback team was born in December 2012 out of a shared desire to continue work on the
discontinued "Gnome Fallback" mode based on metacity and gnome-panel. We have invited people from downstream
and derived desktops that have shared interests, e.g. the MATE team, to collaborate or join the Gnome
Flashback team, and would like to explicitly renew this invitation. Gnome-Panel 3.8 is a mature port of the
classical Gnome-Panel to Gnome 3 technologies, like GTK+ 3 and DConf/GSettings. (A metacity port to GTK+ 3
would also well be within the scope of Gnome Flashback.) We usually meet on the gnome-flashback-list gnome
org .
With kind regards,
Philipp Kaluza (for the Gnome Flashback Team)"

PS: As for Trisquel Mini I hope for LXDE & Razor-qt merger into LXDE-Qt.
