DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 270
[Posted September 15, 2008 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for September 15, 2008 is out. "
An issue largely
dedicated to Ubuntu, our editorial looks at the increasingly assertive way
Canonical handles its trademarks with relations to other Ubuntu-based
distributions. In related news, Ubuntu debates ways to bypass a
controversial Mozilla licensing requirement, Shuttleworth announces Ubuntu
9.04 "Jaunty Jackalope" with interesting innovations, and the Ubuntu Eee
project launches a new product for the popular netbook from ASUS,
incorporating a brand new desktop interface. Also in the news, openSUSE
goes for a complete switch to KDE 4.x starting with version 11.2, Fedora
announces the availability of package updates after a recent server crack,
and Red Hat receives criticism from the Linux community over the lack of
security information following the Fedora server compromise. Finally, if
you are a translator or if you work in localising software applications,
don't miss Linguas OS, a PCLinuxOS-based live CD that could greatly speed
up your work."
