    GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
    http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ .  Beyond that, this update
    includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
    
    The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
    hierarchy.  We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
    rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
    hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD.  This will mean some
    user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
    more details.
    
    This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
    possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
    to make it happen successfully.  Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
    their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
    pointyhat (respectively).
    
    The FreeBSD GNOME team would also like to thank our various testers and
    contributors:
