KDE neon announced The KDE neon project — which arguably could be seen as a replacement for the Kubuntu distribution — has been announced at FOSDEM. "More than ever people expect a stable desktop with cutting-edge features, all in a package which is easy to use and ready to make their own.
KDE Neon is the intersection of these needs using a stable Ubuntu long-term release as its core, packaging the hottest software fresh from the KDE Community ovens. Compute knowing you have a solid foundation and enjoy the features you experience in the world's most customisable desktop."
The stable update stream continues The 4.4.1, 4.3.5, and 4.1.17 stable kernel updates are out. These contain a relatively large number of changes as Greg Kroah-Hartman continues to work through the patch backlog.
