CINNAMON + is desktop environment using GNOME 3 technologies but with a GNOME 2 + look and feel.</p> + + <p>This quarter was exciting time for the GNOME Team. We imported + GNOME 3.14.0 and CINNAMON 2.2.16 into the ports tree. At the same + time we removed the old GNOME 2.32 desktop. And two weeks later + we updated GNOME to 3.14.2 and CINNAMON to 2.4.2 which was collected + while the preparation for the initial GNOME 3.14.0 import was + underway.</p> + + <p>We moved our development repo to GitHub.
