Ubuntu 15.10 Wily en Gnome versie 3.16

[Hannie Dumoleyn]

Beste mensen,
De LanguagePackTranslationDeadline voor Ubuntu 15.10 is op donderdag 15 
oktober. De uitgave is een week later, 22-10.
Ik heb hieronder een samenvatting opgenomen van een interessant artikel 
over Ubuntu 15.10. Wat me opvalt is dat Ubuntu eindelijk Gnome versie 
3.16 zal gebruiken. In het verleden werden steeds veel oudere versies 
van Gnome gebruikt.

Met trots kunnen we weer vaststellen dat het grootste deel van Wily 
vertaald is, zie

Groet,
Hannie

As of 15.10, the Ubuntu GNOME stack will /finally/ be upgraded to an 
almost up-to-date 3.16.x release. This has been long overdue, because so 
much of the GNOME stack has greatly improved, and Ubuntu remaining 
behind this curve has caused the shipped GNOME packages to be missing 
major improvements. As a bonus, a much newer (and improved) GTK will be 
shipped with Wily.

You'll be surprised to find one actual visible change in the 15.10 
release. The scrollbars in Unity are finally shifting to those developed 
by the GNOME team. This is a much-needed improvement, since the Unity 
scrollbars have always seemed a bit of a design mistake.

That's about it for the major changes for 15.10, which is the last 
boring upgrade for Ubuntu. Beyond that, things will start getting really 
interesting, as the Unity 8/Mir combination finally comes to fruition. 
At that point, all bets are off. When 16.04 is released, the desktop 
will drastically change, and all of that amazing stability we've enjoyed 
for years might well be chucked out the window... at least for a while.

If you fear change, Ubuntu 15.10 might well be the last upgrade to the 
world's most popular Linux distribution that doesn't send your heart 
into apoplectic fits. Of course, this is all speculation... as we all 
know, the shift to Unity 8/Mir has been pushed back time and time again. 
But if everything goes as planned, 16.04 will finally be that "magic" 
number.
