Introduction

This page lists:

• the accessibility changes we feel are strongly desired to have in time for the release of GNOME 3.4, but not absolutely essential.

• items which we feel can be addressed, if given sufficient resources

Team members should:

• keep existing entries up-to-date
• ensure all entries remain uniform in content and appearance

For those things which are absolutely essential, please see our 3.4 Issues page.
