I wanted to give a heads-up to the wider audience about a number of workstation changes that are landing in the f22 branch (and rawhide) this week, in time for the alpha freeze next week:

• The message tray at the bottom is gone, notifications are now shown

at the top, and can be reviewed in the calendar popup ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/GnomeShell_NewNotifications)

• The gnome-shell theme has been refreshed

• The login screen is using Wayland (

• Codec installation has been integrated in gnome-software (currently

this is hooked up in totem)

• Nautilus has received a number of improvements (

Please let us know if you see any fallout from these changes.

Thanks! Matthias

Each of these would make a nice article for the Magazine too. Would it be possible to get the name of the developer or similar so i can hit them up for further info on these changes, and how they impact / make the user's life easier?

Sure.
