This is the release candidate #1 of GNOME 2.14.3. 

About 99% of the core packages are stable and I'm
awaiting a few fixes from other dependent packages to
finish off the remaining packages

MAKE SURE YOUR READ THE "VIEW NEWS AND INFO" LOCATED
BY CLICKING THAT BUTTON AT:

Set up your environment variables as mentioned in the
NEWS article in your login or startup scripts. If you
use anything KDE related, check for
'/opt/csw/kde-gcc/bin' in your $PATH.

First and foremost, please ensure your mirror status
shows as having a RECENT copy of UNSTABLE branch of
the Blastwave packages (>=Sept 25, 2006):

Ref: http://www.canoedissent.org.uk/mirrorStatus.jsp

Example:
If you are using GNOME 2.14.3 from unstable,
point your 'pkg-get -Uu gnome' mirror configuration to
point to packages at:

http://blastwave.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/csw/unstable/i386/5.8/

and check your packages against the current unstable
package list at:

http://www.blastwave.org/packages.php

Take special note of control-center,REV=2006.09.15,
eog 2.16.x.x, and gnomedesktop,2.14.3,REV=2006.09.14.

I know this is a lot of information, but GNOME is one
of the bigger desktop environments with many
dependencies and configuration options. I've tested
all of the major GNOME apps to run successfully under
GNOME, but if ou have ANY issues with GNOME or
suggestions/fixes then please just email me or file a
bug report.

Thanks!
