Hoary improvements

So, Jorge wants a meme, eh? Here we go:

  • Massive boot time decrease We went from 90+ seconds in Warty to roughly 30 seconds in Hoary. Plus GDM starts near the top of rc2, so loading all your services doesn't block you from getting to your desktop. Finally
  • A GStreamer-based totem that doesn't suck completely. Yay! gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg is even in universe.
  • Man/info support in yelp. I think this deserves special mention. Finally, an info viewer that doesn't suck massively. Shame it didn't make it into GNOME 2.10 (and thus, I'm technically not repeating :), but it's in Hoary.

  • And, well, I guess I have to give a "++" to everything he said. Bastard took all the obvious rocking things in Hoary.
