29 <strong>4 November 2010 - New Cooking 20101104</strong>
30 <p>The SliTaz team is pleased to announce the release of a new cooking ISO
31 featuring over 2600 packages. It contains Linux Kernel 2.6.34 and was
32 rebuilt with a new toolchain using glibc 2.11.2 and gcc 4.5.1. Xorg has
33 been fully updated to 1.9.2. The LiveCD includes Midori, the Deadbeef audio
34 player, and many more applications. Tazpkg and Tazctrlbox now support
35 gettext translations and more UTF locales have been added. Many bugfixes,
36 updates and improvements can also be found. A lot of work has been done
37 during these past 6 months. You can <a href="../get/#cooking">download</a>
38 this new cooking version from one of the official mirrors of the project.
39 All feedback is welcome and can be done through the mailing list or
40 the forum.</p>

54 <strong>28 March 2010 - SliTaz GNU/Linux 3.0 release</strong>
55 <p>All of the SliTaz team are proud to announce the release of the SliTaz
56 GNU/Linux 3.0 operating system. It's simpler, faster, customizable,
57 mightier and yet incredibly tiny. The new SliTaz stable version is now
58 out after one year of development.</p>
59 <p>The core desktop provides a fully featured desktop powered by Xorg 7.4,
60 Openbox, LXDE components and home made tools. It lets you easily connect to
61 the Internet to surf the web with the Midori web browser, listen to music
62 or manage your pictures.</p>
63 <p>The default core system fits into a 30 MB ISO image and LiveCD flavors
64 start at 8 MB. This stable version has been built by a new toolchain including
65 GCC 4.4.1 and uses the Linux kernel 2.6.30.6. You can read the full
66 <a href="../doc/releases/3.0/relnotes.en.html">Releases Notes</a> for more
67 information and <a href="../get/#stable">download</a> a LiveCD image from the
68 SliTaz mirrors.</p>

72 <strong>14 March 2010 - RC series and Solutionslinux 2010 (Paris)</strong>
73 <p>Since we're getting closer to the next stable release, we have updated the
74 core ISO image to start with a RC series. The Major change is the switch to
75 Midori as the default web browser, this will improve user experience and let
76 us keep SliTaz at 30Mb. Midori is a modern browser powered by the webkit engine -
77 it is fast, simple to use and well integrated with the SliTaz desktop.</p>
78 <p>This updated ISO comes with a bunch of bug and dependency fixes, we have
79 also improved the home made tools and scripts. This new ISO image can be
80 downloaded from the SliTaz mirrors (30 Mb):
81 <a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/iso/cooking/slitaz-cooking.iso">slitaz-cooking.iso</a></p>
82 <p>By the way, the SliTaz project will be at
83 <a href="http://www.solutionslinux.fr/">Solutionslinux</a> 2010 next
84 week in Paris. You will be able to learn about the project and make
85 contact with members of the association and the development team.</p>

89 <strong>21 February 2010 - New Cooking 20100221</strong>
90 <p>SliTaz contributors are proud to announce a new Cooking version of the
91 LiveCD. This is the last Cooking RC before 3.0 is released. The core ISO image
92 is at 27 MB and comes with many changes and improvments. This Cooking uses
93 Xorg as X server instead of Xvesa and provides full UTF-8 support. With
94 a clean desktop environment, it also provides many applications for daily
95 usage and common tasks. Netsurf replaces firefox as the default web browser.
96 Nevertheless, a Firefox flavor at 29 Mb with sound and wifi support can
97 also be downloaded from the official mirrors.</p>
98 <p>On the updates and improvements side: tazpkg is faster, boot-scripts are
99 updated and home-made toolboxes are improved. Wifibox uses awk for better
100 network scanning. WPA support in the boot scripts have been improved. Boot
101 time is logged for performance measuring. The SliTaz installer will now
102 try to use files from a USB device if no cdrom is found, allow you to
103 create a default user account, set a root password and use a separate /home
104 partition. And finally, LiveCD customization is now much easier: users
105 just have to boot, modify and use writefs via the Tazlito graphical interface
106 or from the command line to generate their own customized CD.</p>
107 <p>As usual, you can <a href="../get/#cooking">download</a> these new
108 flavors from one of the official mirrors of the project and provide feedback
109 on the SliTaz forum.</p>
