DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 271
The DistroWatch
Weekly for September 22, 2008 is out. "The feature story of the
this week's issue is package management or, more precisely, an attempt to
create a command-line package management cheatsheet that would cover just
about any Linux distribution available today. The first quick version is
out today, but we hope to bring you a much improved and more detailed one
after this week's feedback and suggestions. In the news section,
OpenSolaris releases first test images for its upcoming version 2008.11,
Fedora provides a further update on the recent compromise of its servers,
Ubuntu responds to the accusations that it contributes little to the Linux
kernel, and Phoronix runs a performance benchmark on four different Linux
distributions installed on the ASUS Eee PC. Also worth a read, an
interesting interview with a senior OpenSolaris engineer and further
evidence that Gentoo Linux is no longer that innovative and trend-setting
distribution it was just five years ago. Finally, a very happy GNOME 2.24
release week to all the fans of the popular desktop!"
