Product     : Fedora 16
Version     : 3.2.2
Release     : 1.fc16
URL         : None
Summary     : Window and compositing manager based on Clutter
Description :
Mutter is a window and compositing manager that displays and manages
your desktop via OpenGL. Mutter combines a sophisticated display engine
using the Clutter toolkit with solid window-management logic inherited
from the Metacity window manager.

While Mutter can be used stand-alone, it is primarily intended to be
used as the display core of a larger system such as gnome-shell or
Moblin. For this reason, Mutter is very extensible via plugins, which
are used both to add fancy visual effects and to rework the window
management behaviors to meet the needs of the environment.

Update Information:

GNOME Shell
===========

This is a bug-fix release. One notable improvement with this release is that the browser plugin now works correctly with WebKit-based browsers like Epiphany and Google Chrome. In addition, the release fixes a number of common crashers, improves the behavior of the messaging tray to interfere less with application operation, and fixes some cases where the Network menu could get confused and misbehave.

Mutter
======

This is a bug-fix release that fixes one rare crasher and a medium sized memory leak.
