86 Syslinux and provides more than 200 Linux commands, the LightTPD web server,
87 SQLite database, rescue tools, IRC client, SSH client/server powered by
88 Dropbear, X window system, JWM (Joe's Window Manager), gFTP, Geany IDE,
89 Mozilla Firefox, Alsaplayer, Gparted, a sound file editor and much more.

100 <li><strong>Cooking 20080716 - Web boot and MPlayer</strong><br />
101 SliTaz project members are proud to announce the availability of a new
102 Cooking version, including many new features and bug fixes. This version
103 provides the boot option <code>web</code> which lets you boot SliTaz
104 from the internet using gPXE from
105 <a href="http://boot.slitaz.org/">boot.slitaz.org</a>. This new
106 unique service offers the possibility to use SliTaz in Live mode
107 (all in RAM), using the Live options to store your data permanently
108 and preconfigure the system. This new Cooking takes an extra 3 Mb so we can provide:
109 a multimedia player with MPlayer, a notes manager with Notecase,
110 a new version of Tazpkg package manager with md5sum support, XFS
111 filesystem support built into the Kernel, a 'man' command and a few
112 updates. This version requires at least 160 Mb to boot and run properly,
113 we offer loram flavors for machines with less resources.

120 modules, linux package was also split to have a fairly modular Kernel.

123 of the Slitaz utils and tools have been improved: tazpkgbox provides
124 some new commands for package management and bootfloppybox can be used in
125 text mode, Netbox wifi and PPPoE support are now both working well and
126 a new function called zeroconf is available. Most packages are up-to-date
127 and Firefox 3.0 is part of the 25.2 Mb ISO. Cooking version can be

193 <li><strong>16 Dec 2007 - SliTaz English forum</strong><br />
194 The project is proud the announce the availability of an
195 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/#idx2">English forum</a>
196 providing help and support to users speaking English. Since the project
197 is French based, we get a lot of feedback and requests from the English
198 speaking community that we want to honour. The forum has it's own domain
199 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/">forum.slitaz.org</a>. The default
200 interface is in French but settings can be changed when you login with your
201 account. The crew is also working on the lack of English documentation.
202 Help and assistance are greatly welcomed in the project.

204 <li><strong>06 Dec 2007 - 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster!</strong><br />
205 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster. With the new lzma compression
206 boot time has gone down, we worked hard these two days to improve boot speed
207 and finally get SliTaz to boot twice as fast. So we uploaded a new LiveCD with a
208 new Kernel patch for lzma and a bug fix for boot messages. Some
209 tests gave us the LiveCD booting between 20 to 30 seconds on recent PCs
210 and between 60 to 80 on older hardware.

213 <li><strong>04 Dec 2007 - New Cooking with sound support and more options</strong><br />
214 SliTaz crew is proud to announce the availability of a new SliTaz Cooking
215 release. It's finally not the expected stable release because we decided
216 to add some more hardware support on the LiveCD, like sound and PCMCIA
217 support. A new roadmap is on the stove and a stable release should be expected
218 in March 2008, matching one year of the first SliTaz public release. This will
219 also give us time to bring you a rock solid stable version with all these new
220 features and more than 240 packages on the mirror. So, this new SliTaz
221 release brings you Alsa with it's mixer, Alsaplayer, mpg123, Gcolor2,
222 pcmciautils, and a new Kernel. SliTaz also provides new options to use at
223 boot time and isapnptools for very old hardware like IBM GL300 6272/6282 or
224 P133/32M. All this new stuff fits in an ISO image of 22,4 Mb. The Simple
225 Light Incredible... SliTaz (cooking) LiveCD can be obtained
