82 <li><strong>4 November 2009 - New Cooking 20091104</strong>
83 <p>SliTaz contributors are proud to announce the availability of a new Cooking
84 ISO image based on over 2100 packages available in the SliTaz repository.
85 The full system has been rebuilt with a new toolchain using Glibc 2.10.1
86 and GCC 4.4.1. This new Cooking uses the Linux kernel 2.6.30.6 with better
87 hardware support and more built-in modules. The boot process has been further
88 improved and the boot time is now faster than ever. Major packages found on
89 the LiveCD such as Firefox have been updated to the current stable version.
90 Home-made GUI boxes have been enhanced. Tazpkg packages manager supports new
91 features including the conversion of deb/rpm/arch/slackware/ipk packages to
92 Slitaz native format. The ISO image includes a new Openbox, GTK and icons
93 theme for an elegant and more beautiful desktop. We have also removed
94 ePDFview and switched to an online PDF viewer. This ISO image, however,
95 is a bit bigger than 30 Mb (31.5) due to a bigger Kernel and many new
96 dependencies.</p>
97 <p>We would also like to announce that the SliTaz project has a new
98 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/">support forum</a> and a new
99 <a href="http://scn.slitaz.org/">community platform</a> where
100 everyone is welcome to share and to get involved! This new Cooking ISO
101 is as always downloadable from the website download section:

105 <li><strong>19 May 2009 - SliTaz at LinuxDays 2009 (Geneva)</strong>
106 <p>
107 During the LinuxDays show in Switzerland, the association will have a
108 booth in the Association Village and a lecture will be given on Wednesday
109 morning. The lecture is a case study with a corporate view based on using a
110 "SliTaz Business Server" with a switchboard, integrated ERP, mail, LDAP,
111 etc...
112 </p>
113 <p>
114 During the 3 days, the exhibition stand will be manned by members
115 of the SliTaz project. The booth will offer demonstrations, including the
116 creation of bootable USB keys (LiveUSB) and cdroms. The LinuxDays LiveCD
117 will contain a selection of software designed for mobile
118 use. The exhibition lounge will also have a forum and we will gladly answer
119 any questions. So feel free to visit us! Information can be found on
120 <a href="http://labs.slitaz.org/wiki/events/2009-linuxdays">SliTaz Labs</a>
121 and the <a href="http://2009.linuxdays.ch/">2009.linuxdays.ch</a> website.

126 <p>
127 The SliTaz project are proud to announce the release of the new stable
128 version of the distribution - SliTaz GNU/Linux 2.0. This new version is the
129 result of one year of community work and provides an ultra lightweight, fast,
130 scalable and stable operating system. SliTaz provides a complete graphical
131 desktop in less than 30MB, applications required for a reliable and robust
132 server environment and 1400 easily installable software packages in a few
133 clicks of the mouse. This new version offers the automounting of partitions
134 (NTFS compliant), wifi support, an office respecting the Freedesktop.org
135 standards (drag and drop), network booting with gPXE and
136 <a href="http://boot.slitaz.org/">boot.slitaz.org</a>, automatic detection
137 of USB and PCI devices, a GUI package manager and control center, and various
138 graphical tools to manage the distribution. The creation of USB media and
139 bootable LiveCD flavors is also simplified and greatly improved. The core
140 LiveCD includes Firefox 3.0.8, gFTP, LostIRC, ePDFView, mtPaint, Transmission,
141 Osmo and Alsaplayer. The website documentation has been updated and you can read the
142 <a href="../doc/releases/2.0/relnotes.en.html">release notes</a> included in
143 the distribution for more details on this stable version. SliTaz GNU/Linux
144 2.0 is now <a href="../get/index.html">downloadable</a> from the official mirrors of
145 the project.
146 </p></li>
148 <li><strong>27 March 2009 - Labs and new mirrors</strong>

150 Continually seeking to improve the distribution and the services we offer,
151 we are proud to announce the launch of <a href="http://labs.slitaz.org/">SliTaz Labs</a>.
