DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 194
[Posted March 19, 2007 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for March 19, 2007 is out. "
With the release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5, the focus of many Linux users will shift to
those projects that rebuild the source packages made available by the
prominent North American Linux vendor into a complete RHEL clone. Many
other distributions are also in advanced stages of development: Mandriva
Linux 2007.1 will be one of the first major distributions to make a new
release this year, while a highly up-to-date Slackware Linux 11.1 shouldn't
be far behind either. In other news: Debian has announced the second
release candidate of Debian Installer for Etch, Gentoo approves a new code
of conduct for its developers, the Freespire community voices its concerns
over the direction of the distribution, and OpenBSD announces the release
date for version 4.1. Our feature story this week is a commentary about a
new, collaborative development model as pioneered by the Wolvix and Ultima
developers, followed by a brief review of Wolvix 1.1.0 alpha."
