Therefore we will try in the future mainly NOT to port the standard Gnome/2 apps, but the programs that are urgently needed for OS/2 and hope that the next EverBlue (search WarpCast for "EverBlue" for more info on EverBlue) release will be available soon. The problem is that Orbit's port is still not complete, due to some errors that haven't been found yet. And we have the same problem with some other libs. Before this problem was avoided by only porting what was possible. But for the most important apps we need these libs. So you can help by two things: Help find the errors in the lib-ports (mail Platon Fomichev plaatcland.ru) or by suggesting apps, that are missing under OS/2, but available under GNOME (mail to the gnome-os2 Maillinglist on egroups). You can find a GNOME software map under: http://www.gnome.org/applist Gnome/2 is the port of GNOME (http://www.gnome.org) wich is not only a desktop environment, but a large collection of apps for every kind of work. Gimp and gPhoto e.g. are part of this project.
