Red Hat Linux 9 Release And Interview

Posted by timothy on Monday April 7, 2003 @07:45AM from the why-the-kitchen-sink-got-left-out dept.

Gentu writes "Red Hat Linux 9 has been released to the official mirrors, brace for impact! Additionally, OSNews features an interview with Red Hat Linux's manager, Matt Wilson and they discuss everything from mp3/dvd playback, to Randr, dependancy policies and more." Also on the Red Hat front, DdJ writes "So, I noticed that Red Hat's stock price jumped up a bit this morning, and checked the news to find out why. It turns out they've released a new portal product and a new CMS product. Both appear to be based on Java/Tomcat, which would mean it's not Zope-based or Zend-based. But, they're supposedly open source. Anyone have any further info on this stuff yet?" Update: 04/08 05:24 GMT by T : Don't forget that the new Red Hat release is available through BitTorrent, too.

Oh wait, my T-1. Oops. :P

What new this time? Did they integrate icewm with enlightenment? :)

Kinda curious how the desktop is 'enhanced' this time through.

"+5 Funny?" by Overly+Critical+Guy · 2003-04-07 13:58 · Score: 2, Funny

This incredibly clever and original attempt at referencing OS X certainly deserved to be modded all the way up to +5 Funny. Because, it is just that funny. Just like all the Windows 3.11 reference jokes whenever something reaches 3.0. Never gets old, and required much forethought before conceptualizing into words.
