Trisquel 4.0 LTS
As the special way to celebrate Software Freedom Day, they are pleased to announce that Trisquel 4.0 LTS, codename “Taranis” -the Celtic god of thunder- is ready for download. It is the second Long Term Support release, and it is a sweet one! It comes in the usual GNOME flavor and with a light LXDE based environment in the shape of the new “Mini” edition. Netinstall images are also available for servers and custom installations. Soon they will also add an international DVD with a big translation set -the standard images contain complete support for English and Spanish- and educational and professional oriented environments as well.
This release is based on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and as always it contains just free software, including:
Common
Linux-libre 2.6.32
Xorg 7.5

Standard edition
GNOME 2.30
