+      <p>The &os; GNOME Team maintains the GNOME, MATE, and CINNAMON
+	desktop environments and graphical user interfaces for &os;.
+	GNOME 3 is part of the GNU Project.  MATE is a fork of the
+	GNOME 2 desktop.  CINNAMON is a desktop environment using
+	GNOME 3 technologies, but with a GNOME 2 look and feel.</p>
+
+      <p>GNOME 3.20 was ported with help from Ruslan Makhmatkhanov and
+	Gustau Perez.  Work is being done on updating GDM from the old
+	3.16 version to the 3.20 version.  For some reason, scrollbars
+	in Firefox are no longer working, though this has not been
+	investigated.</p>
+
+      <p>With Gtk+ 3.20, theme support was again changed, and the
+	changes are not backwards compatible.  If you have a theme
+	update that requires the new Gtk+ version, feel free to add it
+	as a blocker bug to the GNOME/Gtk+ 3.20 update bug.  This bug
+	will be used for the exp-run of GNOME 3.20, when it is ready,
+	and to track the theme-related ports.  Also, there is a
+	problem with the open and save dialog content going
+	invisible.</p>
