If you want to learn more about the technologies available for developers, you can check our developer web site that contains articles, white papers, on-line documentation for the various GNOME APIs as well as tutorials at http://developer.gnome.org/.

The GNOME project uses Bonsai and LXR, which let you browse the code by revision numbers, check the changes, see the people involved and cross-reference the entire source base. To use Bonsai or LXR on the GNOME code, go to our CVS access web page: http://cvs.gnome.org/.

GNOME is currently distributed by various Linux distributions: Red Hat Linux and its derivatives, TurboLinux, Mandrake Linux and SuSE Linux. It should appear soon in Caldera Linux and hopefully others will follow soon.

You can get precompiled versions of GNOME for various operating systems from http://www.gnome.org/start/, or you can download the source code directly from ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/.

People interested in getting the latest development version of GNOME can use our network of anonymous CVS servers. For detailed instructions, see http://developer.gnome.org/tools/cvs.html/.
