Ubuntu Gets IcedTea (OpenJDK)

,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy Gibbon" is using Fedora/Red Hat's system-config-printer to 
| replace gnome-cups-manager, and now another Fedora-spawned project is 
| available as Debian packages for Ubuntu. IcedTea was started as a project by 
| Red Hat that uses the OpenJDK code but for legal reasons it's 
| called "IcedTea" and currently depends upon some non-free bits of code to 
| build.

Preliminary Review: Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon Alpha 2
  
,----[ Quote ]
| That's about all I have at this moment in time, to go into it in any further 
| detail might be a bit pointless. Basically we're getting another Ubuntu 
| release which will be good. Version 2.6.22 of the kernel, Gnome 2.20 and KDE 
| 3.5.7 (with the ability to have a few packages from KDE4 RC2). It will be a 
| belter but it goes without saying that Gutsy Gibbon will be a quality 
| release.

| Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn has been out for less than two months but 
| tomorrow we will see the first alpha (or in this case it's called a 
| "Tribe") release of Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. We used the daily build

Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon 7.10 Tribe 1 - A Review?

,----[ Quote ]
| I did not experience any ill-effects while using Gutsy, but I 
| was only browsing the web using Firefox. One more note on Tribe 1, 
| Pidgin has replaced GAIM as the instant messenger (as expected) and 
| the OpenOffice Draw application was added.
| 
| Well, there you have it, nothing exciting thus far, but really, do 
| not expect much before the beta release in September.

| Tribe 2 is the second in a series of milestone CD images that will be
| released throughout the Gutsy development cycle. The Tribe images are known
| to be reasonably free of show-stopper CD build or installer bugs, while
| representing a very recent snapshot of Gutsy.
