Phil Miller mengumumkan ketersediaan versi alpha keempat Chakra, distribusi linux desktop dalam LiveCD dengan KDE 4 berbasis Arch Linux:
Today we are pleased to announce the release of alpha 4, named ‘NewAge’, of our very own Chakra live media. A lot has changed since alpha 3. We have a new KDE 4 theme; Tribe can install custom mount points, and we did a ton of fixes. KDEmod got updated to version 4.3.3. Chakra hardware detection got stripped down to fit X.Org Server 1.7.1.901 package, so only NVIDIA drivers are the supported proprietary drivers for now. Most noticeable changes and additions since alpha 3: Linux kernel 2.6.31.6 with fglrx patch; Chakra tools updated (aqpm, shaman, chase); ATI Catalyst support temporarily dropped….

Emmanuel Bailleul mengumumkan rilis Zenwalk Linux 6.2 “Core” edition, distribusi Zenwalk minimalis tanpa server grafis apapun yang ditujukan sebagai titik awal untuk mengembangkan sistem desktop atau server terkustomisasi :
Zenwalk Core 6.2 is ready! Like the plain 6.2, Zenwalk Core 6.2 is mostly new code (nearly all packages have been updated), and the base system has been slightly modified (ext4, kernel 2.6.30.5). The switch to LZMA for package compression has reduced the overall size of the ISO image to 170 MB. Here’s a summary of important changes: Kernel 2.6.30.5; LZMA compression for packages; ext4 as main file system; faster boot (tuned init scripts); bus auto-detection in the installer (will choose appropriate kernel depending on the architecture, SATA, PATA, SCSI); latest development tools… In brief, all you need to create a personalized build platform, your favorite desktop environment or a clean and secured server machine.

Kai Hendry merilis Webconverger 5.7, distribusi berbasis debian untuk web kiosks yang hanya menyertakan Firefox sebagai satu-satunya aplikasi didalamnya :
Webconverger 5.7 features a Debian ‘Lenny’ back-ported Firefox 3.5 build. Overall I would consider this release as experimental. There is a couple of new known bugs introduced with Firefox 3.5, namely you can now non-persistently change configuration settings in the about: URL and browse the local file system – this introduces possibly some security issues. I’ve disabled the Debian installer again, I am finding it far too complex and I am tempted to write my own simpler installer based on dd. I’ve enabled Firefox’s Private Browsing feature by default. Strictly speaking since the ~/.mozilla directory is purged between sessions, this feature is totally unnecessary and probably introduces problems.
