Well, the latest software is probably not the most stable, but brings you cool new features. This short post tryes to tell how I did gnome-terminal 2.17.90 compilation. Hope it may help you.
If you want to compile and try latest unstable Epiphany browser version (currently 2.17.5), these my notes may help you with that. Don't be afraid I did it for the first time and it is not so hard. Now updated for 2.17.90!
Some other ideas I found in my mind about Art.Gnome.org future version - AGO3. Hidden/private comments for themes, user IM contact information, licenses icons, ago theme directory structure.
I was idling on #epiphany @ irc.gnome.org and dieguito (Diego Escalante) was so pleasure to provide me the next Epiphany, my favourite web browser, changelog draft. Top secret for next few hours :) Lets take a look :)
Just some my notes about my own ideas about Art.Gnome.org future version - AGO3. We should made discuss session, I suggest to create an log system for errors or for the whole running system, maybe to connect error log to Gnome Bugzilla.
