Fwd: gnome-shell 3.8.3



PLEASE NOTE: This release contains significant changes to the way
input source switching is handled, which requires Mutter 3.8.3 and
gnome-settings-daemon 3.8.3 for some API additions. It is recommended
to also update GNOME Settings to 3.8.3 to keep the Keyboard ->
Shortcuts -> Typing -> "Modifiers-only switch to next source" setting
working.


About GNOME Shell
=================

GNOME Shell provides core user interface functions for the GNOME 3
desktop, like switching to windows and launching applications. GNOME
Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware
and introduces innovative user interface concepts to provide a
visually attractive and easy to use experience.

Tarball releases are provided largely for distributions to build
packages. If you are interested in building GNOME Shell from source,
we would recommend building from version control using the build
script described at:

 http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell

Not only will that give you the very latest version of this rapidly
changing project, it will be much easier than get GNOME Shell and its
dependencies to build from tarballs.
