- The SliTaz team is pleased to announce the release of a new cooking
- ISO featuring over 2900 packages. All packages have been rebuilt using
- our new cooking tool, now included in tazwok. It contains Linux Kernel
- 2.6.37 compiled against glibc 2.13, binutils 2.21 & gcc 4.5.2. The Core
- LiveCD includes Midori 0.3.3. Tazpkg is now entirely translated to
- French and we are open to additional translations. Tazwok has been
- entirely rewritten and it's now possible to recook SliTaz from Scratch
- using any ISO. This ISO is the first of a release candidate series which
- leads us to a stable 4.0 release.
-
-
- A lot of work has been done since our last cooking ISO released in november:
- more than 2200 changes have been commited to the wok, and several
- hundreds more to home-built tools. We are proud to announce that the SliTaz
- community grown a lot these last months: the last year, many
- changes was commited than in the previous four. However, quantity doesn't mean
- quality. We need you to help to test this new ISO and report eventual bugs. If
- you want to, you are welcome to help fix known problems before 4.0 is released.
- You can join members of the crew via our IRC, mailing-list, forums or by
- mailing the packages maintainers. We hope you will enjoy this new
- release!

28 March 2010 - SliTaz GNU/Linux 3.0 release
-
All of the SliTaz team are proud to announce the release of the SliTaz
- GNU/Linux 3.0 operating system. It's simpler, faster, customizable,
- mightier and yet incredibly tiny. The new SliTaz stable version is now
- out after one year of development.
-
The core desktop provides a fully featured desktop powered by Xorg 7.4,
- Openbox, LXDE components and home made tools. It lets you easily connect to
- the Internet to surf the web with the Midori web browser, listen to music
- or manage your pictures.
-
The default core system fits into a 30 MB ISO image and LiveCD flavors
- start at 8 MB. This stable version has been built by a new toolchain including
- GCC 4.4.1 and uses the Linux kernel 2.6.30.6. You can read the full
- Releases Notes for more
- information and download a LiveCD image from the
- SliTaz mirrors.

14 March 2010 - RC series and Solutionslinux 2010 (Paris)
-
Since we're getting closer to the next stable release, we have updated the
- core ISO image to start with a RC series. The Major change is the switch to
- Midori as the default web browser, this will improve user experience and let
- us keep SliTaz at 30Mb. Midori is a modern browser powered by the webkit engine -
- it is fast, simple to use and well integrated with the SliTaz desktop.
-
This updated ISO comes with a bunch of bug and dependency fixes, we have
- also improved the home made tools and scripts. This new ISO image can be
- downloaded from the SliTaz mirrors (30 Mb):
- slitaz-cooking.iso
-
By the way, the SliTaz project will be at
- Solutionslinux 2010 next
- week in Paris. You will be able to learn about the project and make
- contact with members of the association and the development team.

21 February 2010 - New Cooking 20100221
-
SliTaz contributors are proud to announce a new Cooking version of the
- LiveCD. This is the last Cooking RC before 3.0 is released. The core ISO image
- is at 27 MB and comes with many changes and improvments. This Cooking uses
- Xorg as X server instead of Xvesa and provides full UTF-8 support. With
- a clean desktop environment, it also provides many applications for daily
- usage and common tasks. Netsurf replaces firefox as the default web browser.
- Nevertheless, a Firefox flavor at 29 Mb with sound and wifi support can
- also be downloaded from the official mirrors.
-
On the updates and improvements side: tazpkg is faster, boot-scripts are
- updated and home-made toolboxes are improved. Wifibox uses awk for better
- network scanning. WPA support in the boot scripts have been improved. Boot
- time is logged for performance measuring. The SliTaz installer will now
- try to use files from an USB device if no cdrom is found, allow you to
- create a default user account, set a root password and use a separate /home
- partition. And finally, LiveCD customization is now much easier: users
- just have to boot, modify and use writefs via the Tazlito graphical interface
- or from the command line to generate their own customized CD.
-
As usual, you can download these new
- flavors from one of the official mirrors of the project and provide feedback
- on the SliTaz forum.
+ Make SliTaz even more popular! Blog, Tweet, share and talk about
+ the project. You can also join the us, connect, share or get
+ involve on the SliTaz Community Network.
