Hi!

Here's the latest weekly news edition!

=====================================================================
Hello lunar community,

Not much has happened during the past week in terms
of the new ISO so I guess we have to stay put until
sofar has the time to finish it.

sofar says: please be patient: my boiler broke down
this week ;^)

I rewrote the whole docbook handling code and lunar
is now equipped with a fully functional docbook
support.

Striker's still busy working the new website.

Likely, there isn't going to be a weekly next weekend
since I'll be out for sofar and Tau's to meet them
and and the rest of our team at FOSDEM (http://fosdem.org).

sofar and Tau, nestu, Ratler, nOprOx, jazman and I
are going to stay with the Xfce team most of the time
so if you want to join us .. FOSDEM might just be
the perfect time ;-)

<Striker`Work> lick my hairy booty!
<alzen> oh, and btw. why i choosed lunar, hehe, cool logo, at least it has penguin in it ^_^. and if someone will tell you that packages are going to slow(i have low net connection) you may always say that it is fast cuz it is being transmitted from lunar, from moonbase if you want to be more datailed ^_^
