This is the best summary I could come up with:

The release candidates were tagged this morning of GNOME Shell and Mutter ahead of the "GNOME 45.rc" test release coming out within the next few days.

GNOME 45 is getting ready for release later this month while the Mutter 45.rc has some last minute changes worth noting.

In turn this helps reduce the usage of Cairo within Mutter.

  • Allowing the ability to dismiss notifications with the backspace key.

  • Many bug fixes and other GNOME Shell extension work.

GNOME 45.0 is due for release on 20 September and will be found in the likes of Fedora Workstation 39 and Ubuntu 23.10 this autumn.
