release can be found at http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.28/ .
Officially, this is mostly a polishing release in preparation for GNOME 3.0
due in about a year.
On the FreeBSD front, though, a lot went into this release. Major thanks
goes to kwm and avl who did a lot of the porting work for this release.
In particular, kwm brought in Evolution MAPI support for better Microsoft
Exchange integration. Avl made sure that the new gobject introspection
repository ports were nicely compartmentalized so that large dependencies
aren't brought in wholesale.
But, every GNOME team member (ahze, avl, bland, kwm, mezz, and myself)
contributed to this release.
Other major improvements include an updated HAL with better volume
probing code, ufsid integration, and support for volume names containing
spaces (big thanks to J.R. Oldroyd); a new WebKit; updated AbiWord;
an updated Gimp; and a preview of the new GNOME Shell project (thanks to
Pawel Worach).
The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like to that the following additional
contributors to this release whose patches and testing really helped
make it a success:
Andrius Morkunas
Dominique Goncalves
Eric L. Chen
J.R. Oldroyd
Joseph S. Atkinson
Li
Pawel Worach
Romain Tartière
Thomas Vogt
Yasuda Keisuke
Rui Paulo
Martin Wilke
(and an extra shout out to miwi and pav for pointyhat runs)
We would like to send this release out to Alexander Loginov (avl) in
hopes that he feels better soon.

Main goals: clear view, powerfull, no icons, fast.
Cat'sEyE gots its power by the configuration file where the user can
(but not has to) 'create' dialogs and build complicated commandlines
which Cat'sEyE calls to the Shell.
You can define how the items are called to some program: each item
(e.g. for viewing some pictures), all items (e.g. for listen to
some music) or processed in a list, calling one item after each
other waiting for the previouse item to finish.
FileShelfs help you keep track of your data spread out
over the whole filesystem, but also belonging together such as
configfiles.

intended to be a competitor to Konqueror, the default KDE file manager:
Konqueror acts as universal viewer being able to show HTML pages, text
documents, directories and a lot more, whereas Dolphin focuses on being only
a file manager. This approach allows to optimize the user interface for the
task of file management.

Rename this ports to use the real vendor package name. The advantage of this
is to allow our users' keyword search works and easier for users to file the
Bugzilla report when they use our name of ports. Debian, Gentoo, NetBSD and
other OSs have the correct package name, but not in our ports tree.
My team, FreeBSD GNOME Team, have agreed with it.
As for other ports, chase the rename.
Unix, written in C++. It is aimed at nonsense-free file management. It
is mostly inspired by the List View in Mac OS Finder, but also has
Unix-handy features such as an interactive location bar with Bash-style
tab completion, and a simple but elegant user interface.
