My original understand was that the 0.25 was going to be a quiet release.
It turned into a huge slashdot failure. I think now that everyone
is wanting to run something GNOME'ish we either have to fix the 0.25+ stuff
that everyone is grabbing now, OR revert back to the GNOME 0.20/gtk-1.0.x
release as the 'public release'. If we do the later, rename the 0.25+ stuff
as GNOME 0.29ALPHA and put it in a seperate place on the ftp site, so
that people will have no excuse to think its for general consumption.
In the future we need to be excrucitaingly clear when a release is what
we want everyone to download and show their friends, or is it a release
for developers so people making cool GNOME apps can say 'this requires
gnome-libs 0.34alpha and gtk-1.1.8'.
I think we should act quickly to handle this PR problem.
