The GNOME Project is proud to announce the release of GNOME 3.16. This is another exciting release for GNOME, and brings many new features and improvements, including redesigned notifications, a new shell theme, new scrollbars, and a refresh for the file manager. 3.16 also includes improvements to the Image Viewer, Music, Photos and Videos. We are also including three new preview apps for the first time: Books, Calendar and Characters. The login screen is now using Wayland by default. For more information about the changes in GNOME 3.16, you can visit the release notes: https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.16/ GNOME 3.16 will be available shortly in many distributions. Live images of GNOME 3.16 are available too. https://www.gnome.org/getting-gnome/ https://download.gnome.org/misc/promo-usb/gnome-3.16.iso These images are based on openSUSE. To try the very latest developments in GNOME, you can also use the VM disk images that are produced by the gnome-continuous build system. https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeContinuous This six months' effort wouldn't have been possible without the whole GNOME community, made of contributors and friends from all around the world: developers, designers, documentation writers, usability and accessibility specialists, translators, maintainers, students, system administrators, companies, artists, testers and last, not least, users. GNOME would not exist without all of you. Thank you to everyone! Our next release, GNOME 3.18, is expected for September 2015. Until then, enjoy GNOME 3.16! The GNOME Release Team
