pankso@603 139 <li><strong>28 Mar 2010 - SliTaz GNU/Linux 3.0 release</strong>
pankso@603 140 <p>All of the SliTaz team are proud to announce the release of the SliTaz
paul@608 141 GNU/Linux 3.0 operating system. It's simpler, faster, customizable,
pankso@603 142 mightier and yet incredibly tiny. The new SliTaz stable version is now
pankso@603 143 out after one year of development.</p>
pankso@603 144 <p>The core desktop provides a fully featured desktop powered by Xorg 7.4,
pankso@603 145 Openbox, LXDE components and home made tools. It lets you easily connect to
pankso@603 146 the Internet to surf the web with the Midori web browser, listen to music
pankso@603 147 or manage your pictures.</p>
pankso@603 148 <p>The default core system fits into a 30 MB ISO image and LiveCD flavors
pankso@603 149 start at 8 MB. This stable version has been built by a new toolchain including
pankso@603 150 GCC 4.4.1 and uses the Linux kernel 2.6.30.6. You can read the full
pankso@603 151 <a href="doc/releases/3.0/relnotes.en.html">Releases Notes</a> for more
pankso@603 152 information and <a href="get/#stable>">download</a> a LiveCD image from the

paul@593 156 <li><strong>14 March 2010 - RC series and Solutionslinux 2010 (Paris)</strong>
paul@595 157 <p>Since we're getting closer to the next stable release, we have updated the
paul@593 158 core ISO image to start with a RC series. The Major change is the switch to
paul@594 159 Midori as the default web browser, this will improve user experience and let
paul@593 160 us keep SliTaz at 30Mb. Midori is a modern browser powered by the webkit engine -
paul@593 161 it is fast, simple to use and well integrated with the SliTaz desktop.</p>
paul@595 162 <p>This updated ISO comes with a bunch of bug and dependency fixes, we have
paul@595 163 also improved the home made tools and scripts. This new ISO image can be
paul@593 164 downloaded from the SliTaz mirrors (30 Mb):
pankso@591 165 <a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/iso/cooking/slitaz-cooking.iso">slitaz-cooking.iso</a></p>
pankso@591 166 <p>By the way, the SliTaz project will be at
pankso@591 167 <a href="http://www.solutionslinux.fr/">Solutionslinux</a> 2010 next
pankso@591 168 week in Paris. You will be able to learn about the project and make
pankso@591 169 contact with members of the association and the development team.</p>

pankso@582 172 <li><strong>21 February 2010 - New Cooking 20100221</strong>
pankso@582 173 <p>SliTaz contributors are proud to announce a new Cooking version of the
paul@587 174 LiveCD. This is the last Cooking RC before 3.0 is released. The core ISO image
paul@587 175 is at 27 MB and comes with many changes and improvments. This Cooking uses
paul@587 176 Xorg as X server instead of Xvesa and provides full UTF-8 support. With
pankso@582 177 a clean desktop environment, it also provides many applications for daily
paul@587 178 usage and common tasks. Netsurf replaces firefox as the default web browser.
pankso@582 179 Nevertheless, a Firefox flavor at 29 Mb with sound and wifi support can
paul@587 180 also be downloaded from the official mirrors.</p>
paul@587 181 <p>On the updates and improvements side: tazpkg is faster, boot-scripts are
pankso@582 182 updated and home-made toolboxes are improved. Wifibox uses awk for better
pankso@582 183 network scanning. WPA support in the boot scripts have been improved. Boot
pankso@582 184 time is logged for performance measuring. The SliTaz installer will now
pankso@582 185 try to use files from an USB device if no cdrom is found, allow you to
pankso@582 186 create a default user account, set a root password and use a separate /home
paul@587 187 partition. And finally, LiveCD customization is now much easier: users
paul@587 188 just have to boot, modify and use writefs via the Tazlito graphical interface
pankso@582 189 or from the command line to generate their own customized CD.</p>
pankso@582 190 <p>As usual, you can <a href="get/index.html#cooking">download</a> these new
pankso@582 191 flavors from one of the official mirrors of the project and provide feedback
pankso@582 192 on the SliTaz forum.</p>

pankso@557 195 <li><strong>4 November 2009 - New Cooking 20091104</strong>
pankso@557 196 <p>SliTaz contributors are proud to announce the availability of a new Cooking
pankso@557 197 ISO image based on over 2100 packages available in the SliTaz repository.
pankso@557 198 The full system has been rebuilt with a new toolchain using Glibc 2.10.1
pankso@557 199 and GCC 4.4.1. This new Cooking uses the Linux kernel 2.6.30.6 with better
pankso@557 200 hardware support and more built-in modules. The boot process has been further
pankso@557 201 improved and the boot time is now faster than ever. Major packages found on
pankso@557 202 the LiveCD such as Firefox have been updated to the current stable version.
pankso@557 203 Home-made GUI boxes have been enhanced. Tazpkg packages manager supports new
pankso@557 204 features including the conversion of deb/rpm/arch/slackware/ipk packages to
pankso@557 205 Slitaz native format. The ISO image includes a new Openbox, GTK and icons
pankso@557 206 theme for an elegant and more beautiful desktop. We have also removed
pankso@557 207 ePDFview and switched to an online PDF viewer. This ISO image, however,
pankso@557 208 is a bit bigger than 30 Mb (31.5) due to a bigger Kernel and many new
pankso@557 209 dependencies.</p>
paul@560 210 <p>We would also like to announce that the SliTaz project has a new
pankso@557 211 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/">support forum</a> and a new
pankso@557 212 <a href="http://community.slitaz.org/">community platform</a> where
pankso@557 213 everyone is welcome to share and to get involved! This new Cooking ISO

pankso@233 305 <li><strong>31 Dec 2008 - Cooking 20081231 - Wifi and NTFS support</strong><br />
pankso@555 306 The SliTaz project is proud to announce a new Cooking version of the
pankso@233 307 LiveCD. It allows you to utilize and test the work done in recent months,
pankso@555 308 it contains many new features, bug fixes and several updates. The
pankso@555 309 distribution now includes a tiny control center, easily managed WiFi
pankso@233 310 via Netbox and tazndis, a lighter version of ndiswrapper to use non-free
pankso@233 311 Windows network card drivers. Perl is now on the cdrom (with Lua removed).
pankso@555 312 WiFi support is also accompanied by support for NTFS partitions, so
pankso@555 313 mplayer had to be dropped from the default packages that make up the
pankso@555 314 heart of the LiveCD. The Tazpkg manager has been greatly improved, it
pankso@555 315 allows the preservation of configuration files, software to be updated
pankso@555 316 according to the construction (build) date on the server, log files to
pankso@555 317 be kept when the packages are actioned, and several fixes have been
pankso@555 318 applied. Also improved are the boot scripts, and the LiveCD tool
pankso@233 319 (Tazlito) is now more coherent. The Cooking repository now contains more
pankso@555 320 than 1100 packages thanks to the SliTaz developers. You can

paul@351 428 <li><strong>06 Dec 2007 - 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster!</strong><br />
pankso@50 429 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster. With the new lzma compression
pankso@50 430 boot time has gone down, we worked hard these two days to improve boot speed
pankso@5 431 and finally get SliTaz to boot twice as fast. So we uploaded a new LiveCD with a
pankso@5 432 new Kernel patch for lzma and a bug fix for boot messages. Some
pankso@5 433 tests gave us the LiveCD booting between 20 to 30 seconds on recent PCs
pankso@50 434 and between 60 to 80 on older hardware.
