News and Announcements:
GSB 2.26.1 Available in gsb-current
Posted 2009/05/12 @ 10:25 GMT
Hello! GSB 2.26.1 for Slackware 12.2 is now readily available for users to try in gsb-current. Details can be found on our download page. There have been a few package changes in this release so please give the CHANGES_AND_HINTS.TXT a quick read before plunging. This is a solid build at the moment, but we'll give it a few days in gsb-current for users to have a chance to test it out and report any bugs. We should be able to have a full stable release by the end of the week.
GSB 2.26.1 being built
Posted 2009/04/27 @ 18:43 GMT
Hello! Thing are back in motion, and GSB 2.26.1 is being built for Slackware 12.2. We hope to have a working -current version by the end of the week for brave testers. All the details will follow when we make a general announcement.
P.S. We're also keeping an eye on Slackware-current, and will also aim to have a version of GSB to match soon. The goal is to have a stable GSB as soon as possible after Pat's unleashes Slackware 13.0 on the world (whenever that is). ;^)
GSB 2.24.2 available in gsb-testing
Posted 2008/12/15 @ 21:01 GMT
We're keeping the updates coming, but unfortunately we just did not have enough time in these past few months to get a heavily tested version of GSB released. Still, for those interested, gsb-testing contains a GSB 2.24.2 available for testing. Please make sure to read the CHANGE_AND_HINTS.TXT for a list of obsoleted packages, new packages, and general hints about what might need some tweaking. It's working quite well, but there are still a few updates in the pipe. And please make sure to report any bugs. :^)
GSB 2.24.0 Almost Ready - Testing in Progress
Posted 2008/10/12 @ 19:41 GMT
Things are starting to look good. We've got a full build of GSB 2.24.0 done, including a full GNOME 2.24.0 desktop, as well as all the goodies, such as the latest NetworkManager, MPlayer, OpenOffice, Abiword, PulseAudio, and a couple of new applications to make your experience of GSB even better. At the moment, we are in the process of testing to make sure nothing will go massively awry when we put GSB 2.24.0 into -current. So it will still be a couple of days before it hits public servers. We will definitely announce when it is ready, soon we hope!

It's that time of year again! A brand new GNOME 2.24.0 has been released, and we are working hard to get a fancy new build of GSB out the door for Slackware 12.1. We should have a preview version in gsb-current by the end of the week. Some notable new changes to GSB are an integrated PolicyKit installation, better printer support, improved development suite, and lots of upgraded packages.
