Gnome 3.5.92 has been released few days ago and nothing more than translations and bug fixes will arrive till the stable release at September 26.
Gnome Shell and Nautilus were the two modules that received huge development from 3.5.91 to .92 and more development is expected in 3.6.1 version in October 17. Gnome Shell 3.6 brings major changes in optics and huge improvements underneath.
Screecasting is from Ubuntu Gnome Remix 12.10, with Gnome3 Team, Ricotz Testing and Ricotz Staging PPA on.
The biggest changes in Gnome Shell 3.6 :
- Smoothest and more discreet animations
- Faster
- Better implementation of notifications -far from perfect thought
- Accessibility always on plus many improvements in this area
- Minor visual changes in theme
- Replace of App Tab Overview with a nine-dot icon
- Introduce of Lock Screen and GDM is now a running dependency in GS
People that didn’t like Gnome Shell so far, are probably not going to like this release either, but for the rest 3.6 is a major improvement.
