GARNOME 2.11.92.1 has been released:
This release is a re-roll of 2.11.92 with some patches for crashers applied (notably, nautilus) and some version bumps for dbus/HAL.
It also includes the python detection code Joseph has been working on and fixes pkg-config to look in both /pkgconfig and /pkg-config directories.
Also, this release has the --disable-debug/--disable-tests flags set, so everyone who complained that 2.11.x was huge, should start rebuilding and testing now.

The TechZone shows 10 Reasons Why You Should Adopt LINUX
The number one reason why Linux is the choice of many is the freedom it gives. It "let's you do everything you want to do" but this is not the only aspect of this freedom. Linux liberates you from the yoke of vendors who hurl unwanted updates your way, and frees you from the sight of the horrible blue screens of death and its likes. This precious freedom doesn't cost you a penny. You can download a free distribution of Linux from the internet. Otherwise, you can get a CD from the market after spending a minimal amount of money and without worrying about the licensing fees or about violating the piracy laws because Linux is open source and it comes with GNU General Public License. This is its true beauty and the reason why Linus Torvalds and the whole Linux community, working to make things better, have many admirers.10 Reasons Why You Should Adopt LINUX
