88 SliTaz is a free operating system, working completely in RAM and booting
89 from removable media such as a cdrom or USB key. SliTaz is distributed as
90 a LiveCD, and weighs less than 30MB. The system is quick and responsive,
91 clean and robust. SliTaz is simple and intuitive, providing a lightweight,
92 elegant desktop, detailed documentation and easy to use configuration
93 tools. <a href="about/index.html">More information...</a>

139 <li><strong>08 May 2010 - Summer of Documentation</strong>
140 <p> The SliTaz team is organizing a 'Summer of Documentation' from May 10th to June 10th.
141 The main aim is to centralize, review and update all online documentation.
142 More details can be found at <a href="http://doc.slitaz.org/">doc.slitaz.org</a>.
143 We hope all SliTaz users will contribute by adding to or updating the documentation.

147 <li><strong>28 Mar 2010 - SliTaz GNU/Linux 3.0 release</strong>
148 <p>All of the SliTaz team are proud to announce the release of the SliTaz
149 GNU/Linux 3.0 operating system. It's simpler, faster, customizable,
150 mightier and yet incredibly tiny. The new SliTaz stable version is now
151 out after one year of development.</p>
152 <p>The core desktop provides a fully featured desktop powered by Xorg 7.4,
153 Openbox, LXDE components and home made tools. It lets you easily connect to
154 the Internet to surf the web with the Midori web browser, listen to music
155 or manage your pictures.</p>
156 <p>The default core system fits into a 30 MB ISO image and LiveCD flavors
157 start at 8 MB. This stable version has been built by a new toolchain including
158 GCC 4.4.1 and uses the Linux kernel 2.6.30.6. You can read the full
159 <a href="doc/releases/3.0/relnotes.en.html">Releases Notes</a> for more
160 information and <a href="get/#stable>">download</a> a LiveCD image from the
161 SliTaz mirrors.</p>
162 </li>
164 <li><strong>14 March 2010 - RC series and Solutionslinux 2010 (Paris)</strong>
165 <p>Since we're getting closer to the next stable release, we have updated the
166 core ISO image to start with a RC series. The Major change is the switch to
167 Midori as the default web browser, this will improve user experience and let
168 us keep SliTaz at 30Mb. Midori is a modern browser powered by the webkit engine -
169 it is fast, simple to use and well integrated with the SliTaz desktop.</p>
170 <p>This updated ISO comes with a bunch of bug and dependency fixes, we have
171 also improved the home made tools and scripts. This new ISO image can be
172 downloaded from the SliTaz mirrors (30 Mb):
173 <a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/iso/cooking/slitaz-cooking.iso">slitaz-cooking.iso</a></p>
174 <p>By the way, the SliTaz project will be at
175 <a href="http://www.solutionslinux.fr/">Solutionslinux</a> 2010 next
176 week in Paris. You will be able to learn about the project and make
177 contact with members of the association and the development team.</p>
178 </li>
180 <li><strong>21 February 2010 - New Cooking 20100221</strong>
181 <p>SliTaz contributors are proud to announce a new Cooking version of the
182 LiveCD. This is the last Cooking RC before 3.0 is released. The core ISO image
183 is at 27 MB and comes with many changes and improvments. This Cooking uses
184 Xorg as X server instead of Xvesa and provides full UTF-8 support. With
185 a clean desktop environment, it also provides many applications for daily
186 usage and common tasks. Netsurf replaces firefox as the default web browser.
187 Nevertheless, a Firefox flavor at 29 Mb with sound and wifi support can
188 also be downloaded from the official mirrors.</p>
189 <p>On the updates and improvements side: tazpkg is faster, boot-scripts are
190 updated and home-made toolboxes are improved. Wifibox uses awk for better
191 network scanning. WPA support in the boot scripts have been improved. Boot
192 time is logged for performance measuring. The SliTaz installer will now
193 try to use files from an USB device if no cdrom is found, allow you to
194 create a default user account, set a root password and use a separate /home
195 partition. And finally, LiveCD customization is now much easier: users
196 just have to boot, modify and use writefs via the Tazlito graphical interface
197 or from the command line to generate their own customized CD.</p>
198 <p>As usual, you can <a href="get/index.html#cooking">download</a> these new
199 flavors from one of the official mirrors of the project and provide feedback
200 on the SliTaz forum.</p>
