A collection of extensions for GNOME Shell (forked from previous repo on git.gnome.org)

THIS REPO IS OBSOLETE. PLEASE SEE THE NEW REPO AT https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell-extensions/

--- original README follows ---

GNOME Shell Extensions is a collection of extensions providing additional and optional functionality to GNOME Shell. Since GNOME Shell is not API stable, extensions work only against a very specific version of the shell, usually the same as this package (see "configure --version"). Also, since extensions are built from many individual contributors, we cannot guarantee stability or quality for any specific extension. For these reasons, distributions are advised to avoid installing or packaging this module by defaul.

Bugs should be reported at http://bugzilla.gnome.org against the 'gnome-shell' product, with the 'extensions' component.
