pankso@1208 48 <strong>02 May 2014 - SliTaz 5.0 Rc-1 release</strong>
pankso@1208 49 <p>
pankso@1208 50 The Slitaz team is pleased to announce the availability of the SliTaz
pankso@1208 51 GNU/Linux 5.0 Release Candidate 1 (RC-1)! It's very mature, but still
pankso@1208 52 requires intensive testing before we'll be able to release a fully
pankso@1208 53 stable version.
pankso@1208 54 </p>
pankso@1208 55 <p>
pankso@1208 56 SliTaz 5.0 RC-1 includes many small bug fixes like the improved dialogs
pankso@1208 57 for the slitaz-config utility that gives new users the ability to easily
pankso@1208 58 setup their systems from a graphical or text interface, Tazpanel boasts
pankso@1208 59 a look and feel and the distribution now has better language support
pankso@1208 60 than ever before. We've even fixed support for old ATA hard drives to
pankso@1208 61 keep with our tradition of being able to run even on ancient systems.
pankso@1208 62 </p>
pankso@1208 63 <p>
pankso@1208 64 The desktop is again powered by PCmanFM, but with the addition of
pankso@1208 65 the trash can and gvfs/udisks support. The packages database has
pankso@1208 66 received over 200 package updates and we've added about 50 new
pankso@1208 67 packages to the repository. In preparation for the upcoming stable
pankso@1208 68 release, we've updated the main website with a new style while making
pankso@1208 69 the interface much easier to use.

pankso@1184 114 <strong>16 Feb 2014 - New SliTaz Cooking Release</strong>
pankso@1184 115 <p>
pankso@1184 116 The Slitaz team is proud to announce the release of a new Cooking
pankso@1184 117 version which paves the road to SliTaz 5.0. This new Cooking includes
pankso@1184 118 almost 2 years of work and has an incredible ChangeLog. All our home
pankso@1184 119 made tools have been improved with some great new tools such as
pankso@1184 120 'frugal' or 'decode'. We focused a lot of work on Desktop integration
pankso@1184 121 to provide a finer user experience and have largely improved the Linux
pankso@1184 122 Kernel (3.2.53) configuration.
pankso@1184 123 </p>
pankso@1184 124 <p>
pankso@1184 125 On the packages side we updated all existing packages and also added
pankso@1184 126 a bunch of new packages to reach more than 4200 packages in the
pankso@1184 127 Cooking database. Lots of work has also been done on the SliTaz
pankso@1184 128 installer which provides a new Ncurses/text front-end.
pankso@1184 129 </p>
pankso@1184 130 <p>
pankso@1184 131 The LiveCD will now ask for language settings before booting so users
pankso@1184 132 can get directly to the Desktop after boot scripts have been executed.
pankso@1184 133 The size of the ISO image has grown a little due to better hardware
pankso@1184 134 support and new functions. You can download the ISO image from a SliTaz
pankso@1184 135 mirror (40 Mb):
