144 (NTFS compliant), wifi support, an office respecting the Freedesktop.org
145 standards (drag and drop), network booting with gPXE and
146 <a href="http://boot.slitaz.org/">boot.slitaz.org</a>, automatic detection
147 of USB and PCI devices, a GUI package manager and control center, and various
148 graphical tools to manage the distribution. The creation of USB media and
149 bootable LiveCD flavors is also simplified and greatly improved. The core
150 LiveCD includes Firefox 3.0.8, gFTP, LostIRC, ePDFView, mtPaint, Transmission,
151 Osmo and Alsaplayer. The website documentation has been updated and you can read the
152 <a href="doc/releases/2.0/relnotes.en.html">release notes</a> included in

185 <li><strong>28 Feb 2009 - New Cooking 20090228</strong><br />
186 Getting ready for the next stable release! - The SliTaz project is proud
187 to publish a new Cooking version with a lot of bug fixes, updates, improvements
188 and new features. PCI/USB device auto-detection is now handled by Tazhw and
189 firmware can be installed in one click through a graphical interface.
190 Tazndis also has a simple GUI which lets you manage Windows drivers in a
191 user friendly interface. The graphical packages manager is also much simpler
192 to use and LiveUSB media such as a USB key can easily be created through a box.
193 Netbox displays all interfaces and the new Wifibox can connect to
194 wireless essids, manage favorite networks and configure card drivers
195 manually or through Tazhw. The desktop has a GUI to enable or disable
196 applications started with an Openbox session and Ivman with desktopkbox
197 provides a lightweight notification system. You can
198 <a href="get/#cooking">download</a> this new ISO image from one of the
199 official mirrors of the website.
200 </li>
201 <li><strong>31 Dec 2008 - Cooking 20081231 - Wifi and NTFS support</strong><br />
202 The SliTaz project is proud to announce a new Cooking version of the
203 LiveCD. It allows you to utilize and test the work done in recent months,
204 it contains many new features, bug fixes and several updates. The
205 distribution now includes a tiny control center, easily managed WiFi
206 via Netbox and tazndis, a lighter version of ndiswrapper to use non-free
207 Windows network card drivers. Perl is now on the cdrom (with Lua removed).
208 WiFi support is also accompanied by support for NTFS partitions, so
209 mplayer had to be dropped from the default packages that make up the
210 heart of the LiveCD. The Tazpkg manager has been greatly improved, it
211 allows the preservation of configuration files, software to be updated
212 according to the construction (build) date on the server, log files to
213 be kept when the packages are actioned, and several fixes have been
214 applied. Also improved are the boot scripts, and the LiveCD tool
215 (Tazlito) is now more coherent. The Cooking repository now contains more
216 than 1100 packages thanks to the SliTaz developers. You can
217 <a href="get/#cooking">download</a> this new version from one of the
218 official mirrors of the project.
219 </li>
220 <li><strong>16 Jul 2008 - Cooking 20080716 - Web boot and MPlayer</strong><br />
221 SliTaz project members are proud to announce the availability of a new
222 Cooking version, including many new features and bug fixes. This version
223 provides the boot option <code>web</code> which lets you boot SliTaz
224 from the internet using gPXE from
225 <a href="http://boot.slitaz.org/">boot.slitaz.org</a>. This new
226 unique service offers the possibility to use SliTaz in Live mode
227 (all in RAM), using the Live options to store your data permanently
228 and preconfigure the system. This new Cooking takes an extra 3 Mb so we can provide:
229 a multimedia player with MPlayer, a notes manager with Notecase,
230 a new version of Tazpkg package manager with md5sum support, XFS
231 filesystem support built into the Kernel, a 'man' command and a few
232 updates. This version requires at least 160 Mb to boot and run properly,
233 we offer loram <a href="get/flavors.html">flavors</a> for machines with less
234 resources. <a href="get/#cooking">Download SliTaz Cooking ISO</a>.

236 <li><strong>26 Jun 2008 - Cooking 20080626 with new Kernel</strong><br />
237 Summer time is here and also the new Cooking from the 26 June. A lot
238 of work has been done to improve user experience. This Cooking version
239 provides a new Kernel (2.6.25.5) with many new built-in drivers and
240 modules, linux package was also split to have a fairly modular Kernel.
241 Default user has changed to <code>tux</code> and the new option
242 <code>user=name</code> lets you choose the default user name. Most
243 of the Slitaz utils and tools have been improved: tazpkgbox provides
244 some new commands for package management and bootfloppybox can be used in
245 text mode, Netbox wifi and PPPoE support are now both working well and

313 <li><strong>16 Dec 2007 - SliTaz English forum</strong><br />
314 The project is proud the announce the availability of an
315 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/#idx2">English forum</a>
316 providing help and support to users speaking English. Since the project
317 is French based, we get a lot of feedback and requests from the English
318 speaking community that we want to honour. The forum has its own domain
319 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/">forum.slitaz.org</a>. The default
320 interface is in French but settings can be changed when you login with your
321 account. The crew is also working on the lack of English documentation.
322 Help and assistance are greatly welcomed in the project.
323 </li>
324 <li><strong>06 Dec 2007 - 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster!</strong><br />
325 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster. With the new lzma compression
326 boot time has gone down, we worked hard these two days to improve boot speed
327 and finally get SliTaz to boot twice as fast. So we uploaded a new LiveCD with a
328 new Kernel patch for lzma and a bug fix for boot messages. Some
329 tests gave us the LiveCD booting between 20 to 30 seconds on recent PCs
330 and between 60 to 80 on older hardware.

333 <li><strong>04 Dec 2007 - New Cooking with sound support and more options</strong><br />
334 SliTaz crew is proud to announce the availability of a new SliTaz Cooking
335 release. It's finally not the expected stable release because we decided
336 to add some more hardware support on the LiveCD, like sound and PCMCIA
337 support. A new roadmap is on the stove and a stable release should be expected
338 in March 2008, matching one year of the first SliTaz public release. This will
339 also give us time to bring you a rock solid stable version with all these new
340 features and more than 240 packages on the mirror. So, this new SliTaz
341 release brings you Alsa with its mixer, Alsaplayer, mpg123, Gcolor2,
342 pcmciautils, and a new Kernel. SliTaz also provides new options to use at
343 boot time and isapnptools for very old hardware like IBM GL300 6272/6282 or
344 P133/32M. All this new stuff fits in an ISO image of 22,4 Mb. The Simple
345 Light Incredible... SliTaz (cooking) LiveCD can be obtained
346 on SliTaz mirror. <a href="get/#cooking">Download</a>. Enjoy!</li>
