Qubes OS release 2 available
Release
2 of the Qubes OS secure desktop system is available. The biggest
change, perhaps, is support for "fully virtualized AppVMs"; these allow
running any operating system in a fully virtualized mode under Qubes.
Other additions include secure audio input to AppVMs (allowing Skype to be
run in a sandbox, evidently), policy control over the clipboard, an
improved secure backup infrastructure, improved hardware support, and more.
