Absolutely far out, cool and excellent.

I submitted a short quote to Slashdot and a few others, using the title:

"A Breath of Fresh Air from Europe"

and the intro:

"In spite of the patent problems in America, a breath of fresh air
arrives from Europe in the form of Dynebolic version 2.3 from
http://www.dyne.org"

with this as the quote:

""Dyne:bolic is being developed since more than 5 years and
optimized to run also on older machines commonly found in Africa
America Asia Europe and Oceania. It includes code from hundreds of
programmers all around the world, with a lively community of
artists, teachers and developers who use, distribute and adapt
this platform according to their needs and desires.

This operating system is a grassroot effort to share
independent knowledge, it keeps away from commercial speculations
and capitalist corporations, because CREATIONS WANT TO BE FREE.

Starting from this release dyne:II core runs efficiently on solid
state devices, loading its system from a compact-flash or similar
controller.
It has been tested on some embedded setups with extremely good
results in terms of speed and power saving. Moreover, this
release significantly improves stability and performance, running
on a brand new 2.6.18 kernel optimized for low latency realtime.
New and updated software include: VNC for remote desktop
operation and recording, MPlayer and ffmpeg audio/video codecs,
DVD recording tools, Ksubtitle editor, FUSE and pcmcia card
autodetection.""

And ending with some comments about why I think Linux is a an
absolutely fantastic, good and innovative community effort
exemplified by the latest Dyne 2.3 distro despite the desire of
predatory proprietary businesses to control OSS.

Anyone out there can use my words.

Rock on Jaromil
