Gnome 3 release date delayed to march 2011
29.07.2010
GUADEC 2010, the annual GNOME User and Developer European Conference, is taking place this year in The Hague, Netherlands, between 26-30 July.
The developers of the GNOME project have decided to push back the release of the next major version of the desktop software to 20 March 2011.
GNOME developers are trying to avoid the problems that plagued their direct competitor KDE desktop environment when it launched the new major version, KDE4, in 2008. They will not release GNOME 3 (with its new user interface GNOME Shell) until it's mature enough for practical day-to-day use.
