WARNING! WARNING! -------------------------- This release is an UNSTABLE development series snapshot. It is intended for testing and hacking purposes ONLY. Like the Linux kernel, GNOME uses odd minor version numbers to indicate development status, so this 2.1.x series will eventually become the official 2.2 release.
