RELEASE: GNOME Developer Kit 2.27.20090727

(Yes the version looks odd :)

Thanks for Bertrand joining the development of GNOME Developer Kit, we are now trying to drive things forward, which at these days unfortunately stayed still (except refreshing packages daily) and didn't show overall progress.

So now, we are pleased to announce the first step following our plan, the 090729 version!

Our current plan is that,
* refresh all packages daily from Git; (already been doing this)
* gradually add more GNOME modules into the Dev Kit; (in action, but slow)
* release new images every week. (This is the most difficult one, e.g. this 090727 release is taken back for THREE days, half of one week.)

What the hell is GNOME Developer Kit?
====
It's a full Linux distribution, but containing _fresh_ GNOME modules. Read more at the wiki. Yes we don't and can't put as much effort as maintaining a normal distro, but sharing everything with Foresight Linux.

The Dev Kit currently tracks ~100 GNOME packages, check it out here. This release contains the newest of these packages.

How to try out?
====
It comes in various forms of images and you can use it with your favorite virtual machine (QEMU/Parallels, VirtualBox/VMWare...)or install it with an ISO. We recommend virtual images since it's quite handy. Download from here.

If you already have the Dev Kit, you can update to the newest version without reinstalling or re-downloading, one command:
sudo conary updateall
