FSF Updates List of Free GNU/Linux Distributions

“Trisquel, which was added to the list last December, has issued
its 3.0 release, codenamed ‘Dwyn.’ It is the first in a new series
of short term support releases that will be updated every six
months with new software to add features, improved performance, and
hardware compatibility.

“Kongoni, named after the Shona word for ‘gnu,’ is based in
Africa. For optimal performance with minimal bandwidth
requirements, it uses a packaging system called “ports” that
downloads programs as source and builds them automatically.

“Both Trisquel and Kongoni are calling for more contributors to
help. Trisquel is seeking mirrors, package maintainers, beta
testers, translators, and documentation writers. Kongoni is looking
for people to help with publicity, and writing new package
ports.”
