DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 198
[Posted April 16, 2007 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for April 16, 2007 is out. "
The new releases from CentOS
and One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) projects were in the centre of attention at
many Linux news sites during the past week. CentOS 5, a clone of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5, is a free enterprise-class distribution with 5-year
security support - perfect for any organisation with long-term operating
system plans, while the first public release of OLPC -- especially its
"Sugar" user interface -- also aroused much curiosity among Linux users. In
the news section: Ubuntu "Feisty" gets delayed over several
release-critical bugs, Linux Mint proves its growing popularity with
incredible download figures, and FreeBSD gets a new file system - the
excellent ZFS from Sun Microsystems. Finally, don't miss the fourth part of
our overview of top ten Linux distributions covering KNOPPIX and Slackware
Linux."
