116 <li><strong>22 Mar 2008 - SliTaz GNU/Linux 1.0 release</strong><br />
117 The SliTaz contributors team are proud to announce the publication of SliTaz
118 GNU/Linux 1.0. This is the first stable release after 2 years of work. The
119 system is distributed as a bootable LiveCD of 24.8 MB providing a fully

124 with the 448 available packages that can be installed with our own
125 package manager Tazpkg. The LiveCD lets you create a custom distro or a LiveUSB
126 device in one single command. Security updates are provided by the project and
127 popular packages like Firefox will also get upgraded for functionality. You

131 detailed information on this stable version.
132 </li>
133 <li><strong>26 Feb 2008 - Updated Cooking ISO (20080225)</strong><br />
134 SliTaz project is proud to announce an updated version of the LiveCD
135 with many bug fixes, new boot options, ACPI support and some package updates
136 such as: Alsa 1.0.16, PHP 5.2.5, Htop 0.7, Firefox 2.0.0.12, Nano 2.0.7 and
137 Sqlite 3.5.6. The option <code>home=*</code> now supports devices by UUID or
138 label (Thanks Andrew) and the <code>laptop</code> option will automatically
139 load ac and battery Kernel modules. The project also provides a new tool
140 Tazusb, dedicated to LiveUSB media. Tazusb lets you create bootable USB
141 media or write the current filesystem to the media, in one single command.
142 This version is ready for stable release, we are now writing Release Notes,
143 preparing final artwork and a stable packages repository. You can try this
144 updated Cooking by <a href="get/#cooking">downloading</a> the LiveCD ISO from
145 SliTaz Web site.</li>
146 <li><strong>10 Jan 2008 - New Cooking ISO (20080107)</strong><br />
147 Paving the road to a stable release, we published a new Cooking ISO with many
148 bug fixes and some new features. We added Asunder for audio CD ripping,
149 Burnbox to burn ISO images, a new boot option to let you load Kernel modules
150 at boot time (<code>modprobe=modules</code>) and the LiveCD now uses Xvesa
151 from Xorg 7.2. All the SliTaz tools and utilities have been updated with
152 new features. Tazpkg can repack packages from a running system, Tazlito
153 can generate a LiveCD distribution flavor with a few commands and Tazwok can
154 check for build dependencies when building a package from source. Please
155 check <a href="get/#cooking">downloads area</a> to get a copy of SliTaz
156 LiveCD.</li>
157 <li><strong>16 Dec 2007 - SliTaz English forum</strong><br />
158 The project is proud the announce the availability of an
159 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/#idx2">English forum</a>
160 providing help and support to users speaking English. Since the project
161 is French based, we get a lot of feedback and requests from the English
162 speaking community that we want to honour. The forum has it's own domain
163 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/">forum.slitaz.org</a>. The default
164 interface is in French but settings can be changed when you login with your
165 account. The crew is also working on the lack of English documentation.
166 Help and assistance are greatly welcomed in the project.
167 </li>
168 <li><strong>06 Dec 2007 - 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster!</strong><br />
169 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster. With the new lzma compression
170 boot time has gone down, we worked hard these two days to improve boot speed
171 and finally get SliTaz to boot twice as fast. So we uploaded a new LiveCD with a
172 new Kernel patch for lzma and a bug fix for boot messages. Some
173 tests gave us the LiveCD booting between 20 to 30 seconds on recent PCs
174 and between 60 to 80 on older hardware.

177 <li><strong>04 Dec 2007 - New Cooking with sound support and more options</strong><br />
178 SliTaz crew is proud to announce the availability of a new SliTaz Cooking
179 release. It's finally not the expected stable release because we decided
180 to add some more hardware support on the LiveCD, like sound and PCMCIA
181 support. A new roadmap is on the stove and a stable release should be expected
182 in March 2008, matching one year of the first SliTaz public release. This will
183 also give us time to bring you a rock solid stable version with all these new
184 features and more than 240 packages on the mirror. So, this new SliTaz
185 release brings you Alsa with it's mixer, Alsaplayer, mpg123, Gcolor2,
186 pcmciautils, and a new Kernel. SliTaz also provides new options to use at
187 boot time and isapnptools for very old hardware like IBM GL300 6272/6282 or
188 P133/32M. All this new stuff fits in an ISO image of 22,4 Mb. The Simple
189 Light Incredible... SliTaz (cooking) LiveCD can be obtained
190 on SliTaz mirror. <a href="get/#cooking">Download</a>. Enjoy!</li>
191 <li><strong>06 Nov 2007 - Last Cooking before 1.0</strong><br />
