Clement Lefebvre, father of the Linux Mint project, proudly announced on his blog that the upcoming Linux Mint 12 operating system will feature a new desktop interface built on top of the GNOME 3 desktop environment. Linux Mint 12 (Lisa) will be the first Linux Mint distribution with the GNOME 3 desktop environment. But it will feature a new user interface called MGSE (Mint Gnime Shell Extensions), which will look like a normal desktop. The new user interface of Linux Mint 12 will feature a bottom panel, an application launcher, a window list with currently running apps, a task-centric desktop (i.e. you switch between windows, not applications) and visible system tray icons.
