re all,

That's it  for the  dyne:II series!  this is the  last release  that i
mantain actively, from now on is up to the Community, I and I.

With hope that will be useful :) if you can, please consider to donate
some money to  this project now: WE have  a non-profit foundation with
regular bank account  and even paypal, the money  will go invested for
the mantainance of this software, many of us will suggest how.

I plan to  keep on documenting and developing new  things, but i won't
be able to  dedicate so much time  as i did so far  to mantain dyne:II
for sure i'll be up for using it around, as i find it practical for my
tasks ;)

If someone is up for mantainance, that needs some money in exchange of
proper dedication:  i've been agile  so far on  that, but we  know how
life works, especially  in babylon, so why not?   let's try to support
each other with a "colletta". http://dyne.org/donate.php

Heartful Thanks to  all of you, in this mailinglist  and in real life,
for this wonderful  community.  You give me a  precious gift: you make
me feel all the time spent developing this software is useful.
I'm grateful - i've never wished anything better for myself.


Thanks, a thousand flowers will blossom!

:: WHAT IS DYNE:BOLIC ?

Dyne:bolic  GNU/Linux  is  a  live  bootable  cd,  containing  a  whole
operating  system  that  works  straight from boot, without the need to
install or change anything on the hard disk. 

If  you  like  and  want to have it on harddisk you can simply copy the
/dyne directory on your computer: the simpliest installation ever! Your
older system is untouched and comes back booting without CD. 

Dyne:bolic  is  user-friendly: recognizes your hardware devices (sound,
video,  firewire,  modem,  network  and USB) and offers a vast range of
software for multimedia production: audio and video manipulation, sound
composition   and   synthesis,   3D  modeling,  photography,  peer2peer
filesharing,   web   browsing,   veejaying,  desktop  publishing,  word
processing, cd burning, email, encryption, anonymity tools and more. 

All   software  is  free  and  there  is  no  market  operation  behind
dyne:bolic, just a communal effort to widen access to modern technology
and let people be Free to Create. 

Dyne:bolic  is  being  developed  since 6 years by independent and well
skilled  artisans  optimizing  it to run on computers 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.

The system is stabilized for  the final release of the dyne:II series.
This  is  a  major   bugfix  for  usb  detection,  encrypted  nesting,
international  keyboard input,  firewire video  capture  and playback.
New software includes darkice/snow, oggfwd and dvgrab for minimalistic
commandline  streaming receipts.   Updated  software include  Blender,
Cinelerra and  FreeJ.  The image.dyne  module is included  by default.
The User's Manual has been completed with more informations.



=== new dyne:II core features:

- - it is a multiuser system, private data can be encrypted
- - can boot from CD, network and USB stick, perfect for thin clients
- - you don't need to download more, you have many applications at once
- - just borrowing a CD/RW and an harddisk you can repack a new liveCD
- - it's modular, so you can easily add and combine .dyne modules
- - it includes all compiler and development tools needed to build dyne


=== upgrading from version 2

To  upgrade  just replace the dyne/ directory with the new one, or run
the CD and answer yes when prompted. 

To upgrade your nest to encrypted the easieast way is
  - backup your home data on the harddisk outside the nest
  - create a new encrypted nest overwriting the old one
  - import manually your data into the new one

=== upgrading from version 1

Upgrade from version 1, or not? here is an overview of reasons:

Pro:
 - better usability and stability, support for more devices
 - possibility to run from usb and solid state devices
 - ability to run in thin-client setups
 - cryptographic protection for your privacy  
 - gathers more software and can be customized easily

Contra:
 - version 2 is not running on XBOX game consoles
 - version 2 does not include the OpenMosix clustering system




::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FOR ACTIVISM IN CRISIS AREAS

                       ____ __ _  _ http://www.linux.com/articles/61665

We  imagine  improvised expressive devices like a CD that turns your PC
into  an on line streaming studio. Imagine a mob that creates a traffic
jam.  Think  of the religious policeman in London, the konfused kollege
kid  and the jealous dentist in Baghdad and the jailed blogger blogging
on in Cairo. Building autonomous networks in extreme conditions. 

Streamtime  uses  old  and  new media for the production of content and
networks  in  the fields of media, arts, culture and activism in crisis
areas,   like   Iraq.  Streamtime  offers  a  diffuse  environment  for
developing  do-it-yourself  media.  We  focus  on  a  cultural sense of
finding   your   own  way  in  the  quagmire  that  is  Iraq,  and  its
representation  in  the  global  media.  We  should  not  try to change
politics in order to foster cultural change; we should support cultural
manifestation in order to force political change.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: AUTOMATIC CRYPTO AUTONOMISM :::


 A public presentation of our privacy protection mechanism was held at
 the Ars Electronica Symposium 2007 - here are the slides:

               __ _  _ http://bricolabs.net/directions/goodbye_privacy

People have the right to protect their privacy as much as their freedom
to express. 

It  is  important to keep in mind that noone else than *you* can ensure
the  privacy  of  your  personal  data.  Server hosted services and web
integrated  technologies  gather  all  data into huge information pools
that are made available to established economical and cultural regimes.

Since  version  2.4 dyne:bolic supports strong encryption of your /home
private data with Linux dm-crypt i586 optimized Rijndael hashed SHA256,
to  provide  an  efficient  and  user-friendly  tool  to  protect  your
bookmarks, addressbook, documents and emails by carrying them back with
you, protected with a fairly strong cryptographic algorithm. 

A  passkey  to  read  your  data is stored inside a file, which is also
protected  by a password. It is possible to keep everything with you on
a  small  usb  stick,  still  being  sure that the data won't be easily
recovered  in  case  you  loose  it.  You  can  also  give  the passkey
protecting  your  data to a friend, to make the data unaccessible until
you meet again, which can be useful in case of tricky transports.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: THIS IS RASTA SOFTWARE

Jah Rastafari Livity bless our Freedom! This is free software, share it
for  the  good of yourself and your people, respect others and let them
express,  be  free  and  let  others  be free. Live long and prosper in
Peace! 

But,  no  Peace without Justice. This software is about Resistence inna
Babylon  world  which  tries  to  control  more  and  more  the  way we
communicate  and  share information and knowledge. This software is for
all  those  who  cannot afford to have the latest expensive hardware to
speak out their words of consciousness and good will. This software has
a full range of applications for production and not only consumption of
information,  it's  a  full  multimedia  studio,  you don't need to buy
anything  to  express  yourself.  Freedom  and sharing of knowledge are
solid  principles  for  evolution  and that's where this software comes
from. 

Inna babylon, money is the main requirement to make a voice possible to
be  heard  by  others.  Capitalist  and  fundamentalist governments all
around   the  world  rule  with  huge  TV  monopolies  spreading  their
propaganda, silencing all criticism. 

This is a struggle for Redemption from existing operating systems which
always  require new expensive hardware for doing the same as ever: give
us  free  players but make us pay for producing our own voices. And the
one who protects you rips you off, as the Arabs say. 

Dyne:bolic  is a tool to produce and publish yourself, freely. There is
nothing to consume here, there is all you need to create. 

                                                http://rastasoft.org






:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: BIG UP  \o/

First  of all salutes and great respect to the many developers who have
written  software  included in dyne:bolic: a long list of names that is
impossible  to  include here, you'll find information about them inside
the CD and in the documentation of each software.

Furthermore there  are many contributors that  patiently document bugs
and give  suggestions, via email  or in person,  most of them  are not
mentioned here, as  it would be a  big effort by itself to  keep up to
date such a documentation... Thanks to  all of you.

Special  thanks for  this  release  go to  Fruity,  Tati, Jean  Habib,
