GoboLinux 016 Joins the 64-bit Revolution, First Alpha Is Based on Awesome WM

Built on top of the highly configurable, next generation Awesome window manager, GoboLinux is a Linux distribution that offers a logical and advanced file system hierarchy. The Alpha milestone of the GoboLinux 016 release is also the first to come with support for 64-bit (x86_64) hardware architectures. Another interesting feature implemented in the first preview of GoboLinux 016 is Runner, a brand-new file system virtualization tool that promises to dynamically change the view of /System/Index processes based on the program’s dependencies file. In other words, it makes /System/Index’s linked/activated dependencies a breeze.
