I believe it is worth a special mention that gNewSense 2.0 has just been released.

There's been a load of Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn reviews lately so we don't need a yet another one to repeat the rundown of all features, goodies, baddies and whatnot. So this will be just a quick, more or less personal, review focusing on problems that I found with Ubuntu, because it indeed does have some rather disappointing issues.

In addition to Ubuntu 6-months stable releases and the next version of ubuntu is 7.10 with Code Name “Gutsy Gibbon”.

Full Story

Can you believe it? After more than a year of being absolutely at the top of distrowatch ranks I've been told that Ubuntu fell to the second place, and after checking it out, indeed, OpenSUSE replaced it.

Unfortunately, Ubuntu is becoming more and more of a disappointment lately. First they start shipping non-free software by default, then the edgy upgrade turns into a disaster and now I read about plans for including more non-free software and a 3D desktop by default in feisty (the next Ubuntu after edgy). To be honest, ever since I've seen the Feisty Fawn announcement I've been wondering what does the focus on "multimedia enablement and desktop effects" imply, the basic suspicion being will it include more non-free software by default?
