I meant outdated, such as when Ubuntu 14.04 replaced 12.04, and software
began to not have binaries for 12.04, and therefore Trisquel 6.
just to let you know it failed to detect my network hardware (ethernet and
wifi)
and it worked with only free software on debian 7 wheezy
Trisquel 6 didn't reach the end of its run. It's not the latest anymore,
but it's still supported until 2017.
So the version of Gnewsense based on Wheezy started when Jessie is frozen?
I'm a bit confused as to why they didn't decide to skip Wheezy and track
Jessie while liberating it and maybe release Gnewsense 4 not too long after
Jessie is released?
Or perhaps I'm just plain ungrateful?
Ucclia development started before Jessie was frozen. Several
contributors checked which packages from Parkes need
changes/blacklisting in the Wheezy-based release in March 2014 (more
than half a year before Jessie was frozen), I don't know if there are
any earlier public dates for the work being
OK. I've definitely missed that.
Blag won't be outdated anymore. Alpha images of 20K are great. Worked like a
charm for me. It comes with Gnome 3.10 and some minimal set of applications
but the repository is satisfying. Most of the gnome appliations and batteries
are there.
I should note that while BLAG 200k won't be outdated for a couple more years,
its software isn't in general newer than Trisquel 7's. But yeah, if BLAG
catches up with Fedora after this next release it might be able to fulfil the
role of pretty cutting edge, but stable that Fedora fills among
gNewsense team decided to proceed with Ucclia so it would be a natural
transition from 3.0 Parkes, easier migration for the folks using Parkes.
Alot of work was already done on Ucclia and they did not want to just scrap
it.
As soon as 4.0 is official (no longer beta), then work will begin

I'd hardly call Trisquel bleeding edge; it's based on Ubuntu LTS releases.
Bleeding edge... relative to the Libre distros. :D
and Parabola? ;)
LOL, so true. This is clearly what I meant. Compared to Debian stable and
the Libre distros, Trisquel is bleeding/cutting edge, while still maintaining
some stability.
I would say it is the best Libre Distro (or at least near the top) for those
that want the most current programs for the
Not totally accurate but point taken.
Trisquel being based on Ubuntu does pull from Ubuntu LTS which is mainly
Debian Testing, not Stable. Therefore, Trisquel's packages are more recent.
This is one reason why many people recommend Trisquel or Ubuntu for those who
want more recent

I don't use yet gNewSense, but want to try it later. Is it in a bad situation
?
By the way, source of the screenshot is from this link:

I'm not surprised to see that he switched to Trisquel, It was just a matter
of time.
Glad to see gNewSense is making headway. I loved 2.3 and had the devil of a
time switching to Trisquel.
In retrospect though, I'm certainly glad I did!
I think it's still Trisquel 6 because he's still using LibreOffice 3 on this
picture last Dec 27, 2014 at 313c. However, feel free to correct me on this
one.
Its too bad he doesn't specify if he was using 6 or 7 of Trisquel.
Thank you! It was nice to read that page again. It now contains a lot of new
stuff.
