Meeting 2000-12-19 - Helix Gnome

[listserv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

We've heard it said very often that GNOME is "more than a window
manager," but what is GNOME really? What does Helix GNOME offer over the
stock GNOME shipping on some current Linux distributions? Tonight we'll
answer most of those basic questions about GNOME along with how to
"upgrade your GNOME" to Helix, and how to keep it current. Brian will
also show you why this is worth the effort. Join us as we cover some of
the GNOME components such as: GNOME-print, Bonobo. CORBA and GNOME-db.
One charge leveled against Linux has always been that there is a lack of
applications, although many feel this is no longer true. With this
component technology, it will be easier for software developers to
create complex, reliable, and consistent well-integrated applications.
Then watch out world, here comes Linux!
