""The 7th release of Linux Mint comes with numerous bug fixes
and a lot of improvements. In particular the menu system, the
application manager and the upload manager now provide new features
such as "Suggestions", "Featured applications", "SCP and SFTP
support". The underlying base of the operating system was also
strengthened with a new adjustment mechanism which makes Linux Mint
more robust and less vulnerable to Ubuntu package upgrades, and the
introduction of virtual and meta packages which simplify upgrade
paths and the installation of multiple desktop environments." -
said Clement Lefebvre in the official release announcement."
