As of two hours ago, GNOME 2.19 became 2.20.
Today, the GNOME Project celebrates the release of GNOME 2.20, the
latest version of the popular, multi-platform Free desktop
environment.Released on schedule, to the day, it is the culmination of six months
effort by GNOME contributors around the world: hackers, documentors,
usability and accessibility specialists, translators, maintainers,
sysadmins, companies, artists, users and testers. Due to their hard
work, we have another great release to be proud of - thanks very much
to every contributor!

Exactly six months from now will come 2.22, and exactly a year from now (if the 2.x series is kept) 2.24 will be released. We'll update with some of the new features available to users in the coming days.
