[ELUG] [FSF] Get DeltaH, gNewSense 2.0

Para los interesados en el software libre precisamente por el asunto de
la LIBERTAD, les mando el boletín de la Free Software Foundation sobre
la recomendación de probar la distribución gNewSense que acaba de
estrenar versión y se basa en Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron". Habrá que
probarla y ver si no le quita demasiada funcionalidad debido a las
limitaciones actuales de los controladores libres y la poca extensión de
uso (todavía) de los formatos libres, particularmente los de música como
el Ogg Vorbis, los de documentos como que no hay sustituto del PDF o
como el SWF de flash cuyo sustituto libre todavía deja que desear. Sin
embargo, creo que vale la pena apoyar la causa.

Saludos.

Asunto: [FSF] Get DeltaH, gNewSense 2.0
Fecha: Thu, 1 May 2008 17:37:33 -0400


BOSTON, MA, USA — May 1, 2008 — The gNewSense project today announced
the release of DeltaH[1], the second version of their all free-software
GNU/Linux distribution.

The DeltaH download web page states[2], "DeltaH was our second major
release, based on Ubuntu Hardy. 2.0 was released on May 1st 2008 -
less than a week after Hardy's release."

The gNewSense project dubs itself as "A free as in freedom GNU/Linux
distribution, that takes all the non-free blobs out of a rather
popular distribution."

In addition to stripping binary blobs from the kernel, the package and
source trees contain only free software drivers, and do not offer
access to any proprietary software. Because of this commitment to free
software, the Free Software Foundation and the GNU project recommend
that users seeking to install a distribution of GNU/Linux consider
installing gNewSense.

The developers of gNewSense invite those interested in discussing this
latest release to join their mailing list[3] or join them on
irc.freenode.net in the #gnewsense channel.
