Beloved Pardus developers,

Pardus 2007 beta2 is out for downloading and testing. We believe that 
this is the best, most stable, most innovative Pardus Linux distribution 
out there. We codenamed the last beta after the great Turkish 
short-story writer Sait Faik Abasıyanık, who was born this very week 
hundred years ago. Sait Faik is the author of seagulls, drunks, dory, 
fishermen, narrow streets, İstanbul and idleness.

What's New in Pardus 2007

- Multilingual installer // It is possible to install Pardus in Turkish, 
English, German or Dutch...
- Smaller packages, faster updates // Thanks to the improvements to the 
Pardus package manager PiSi, applications use less space on disk and 
download over internet much faster...
- Package manager // The intuitive and cute graphics interface of PiSi 
makes update and installation of software much easier.....
- Fast start-up // The new init system developed using the Pardus 
configurarion framework ÇOMAR makes the start-up much faster compared to 
other operating systems....
- Others // More than 200 bug fixes since the previous beta "ATA", USB 
start-up, new icons in Tulliana icon set, ...

And what remains the same

- Pardus, comes with internet tools, office suite, multimedia (picture, 
music, video, etc) players, games and numerous applications to satisfy 
all the needs of desktop users, all squezed in a single CD...
