DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 277
The DistroWatch
Weekly for November 3, 2008 is out. "It was the Ubuntu week,
with much of the Linux-related coverage on many web sites dominated by the
brand new "Intrepid Ibex", the project's latest. A plethora of reviews
followed almost instantly, but some subtle hardware issues and lack of real
breakthrough features have left some of the users and reviewers
unimpressed. In other news, Fedora has unveiled Plymouth, a new
flicker-free boot process, Sabayon has hinted at a large number of
never-seen-before features for the upcoming 4.0 release, Yellow Dog Linux
has launched a beta testing period for its forthcoming version 6.1, and
NetBSD is about to branch version 5.0 with some unexpected
improvements. Also in this week's issue - Ubuntu has published a draft
release schedule for "Jaunty Jackalope" or Ubuntu 9.04. Finally, we are
pleased to announce that the recipient of the October 2008 DistroWatch.com
donation is GoblinX, a slick Slackware-based live CD made in
Brazil."
