LXer: DistroWatch Weekly: The future of DWW, Ubuntu Muslim Edition
Published at LXer:
Welcome to this year's 10th issue of DistroWatch Weekly! This is the most enjoyable part of the year for those Linux users who enjoy testing the development releases of Linux distributions - Fedora, Mandriva, Ubuntu, SimplyMEPIS and PCLinuxOS all delivered brand new test builds last week and the first impressions of all them are highly positive. In the news section, a start-up project releases Ubuntu Muslim Edition, Sun Microsystems joins the Free Software Foundation, and Linux and open source software makes a serious impact on education. Finally, don't miss our commentary on the future of DistroWatch Weekly where you can have your say over the direction your favourite publication takes over the next few weeks. Happy reading!
The Muslim Edition of Ubuntu looks to be a pretty cool OS. There doesn't seem to be much difference from basic Ubuntu - apart from the great wallpaper, the colour scheme and the prayer time warning message, Quran study tool, Arabic learning software. Hopefully this will see Linux taken up in temples and then propagated to the rest of the community.
