DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 227
[Posted November 5, 2007 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for November 5, 2007 is out. "
An excellent week for open
source software enthusiasts as it finally brought the first public preview
of the OpenSolaris-based Indiana, a new operating system trying to take
over our desktops. Will it succeed? Although the release was marred by
controversies and heated discussions on the project's mailing list, the
first reviews indicate that Indiana is on the right track. In other news, a
new distribution called gOS gets bundled with a US$199 Linux computer,
Mandriva's François Bancilhon writes an angry open letter to Microsoft,
Debian introduces a new KDE4 live CD, Fedora prepares for a big release
day, and Kubuntu developers ponder the future of the project. Finally,
don't miss the featured article which looks at the recently released Ubuntu
Studio 7.10."
