The delayed Gentoo Linux 2005.0 was finally released
early this morning. As previously announced, Gentoo Linux now defaults
to kernel 2.6 and older kernels are gradually being retired. Apart
from the usual security patches and package upgrades (to kernel
2.6.11, GCC 3.3.5, X.Org 6.8.2, KDE 3.3.2 and GNOME 2.8.1), there seem
to be no ground-breaking new features in Gentoo 2005.0. Despite that,
and despite the effort required to get it up and running, it is hard
to deny that Gentoo Linux is one of the most educational and enjoyable
distributions out there!
Quoted on Official Release "This release has had a few
setbacks including a complete security rebuild, but with the help of
the many teams within the Gentoo developer community, we believe that
this release will be one of the best that we have ever had."
