GNOME on MacPorts Weekly Report

[Randall Wood]

ALCON:

GNOME released version 2.16.3 this week. We'll be catching up over  
the week. Progress will be tracked at http://homepage.mac.com/rhwood/ 
macports/gnome.html

Reports indicate that GNOME finally builds successfully on Intel  
machines. Go by Landon a beer for having made that work.

Port liboil and port control-center do not seem to exactly get along  
on powerpc machines. I hope to be able to fix this relatively rapidly.

I hope also to be able to add port java-gnome at the 4.0.x version  
sometime soon as well. Two patches have already been submitted back  
to the project. Unless there is some great demand, I'm going to  
ignore java-gnome at earlier versions.

I know that over the past quarter I have been slack about sending  
this report (or even doing anything with MacPorts), but I do believe  
that I will be able keep up the project and port maintenance most  
weeks from this point forward.
