Hi,

[ Ramon Release Schedule ]
Parsix Ramon (1.0) had lots of progress since last month and is almost 
ready to be released as TEST-1. Here we thank all testers, specially 
Behnam Marandi for their help. So here is the release schedule with 
pending tasks:

Ramon would be the first release of the project, being built using the 
Parsix build server. Ramon 1.0r0 will be followed with two bug fix 
releases: r1 and r2 if needed.

[ New package additions ]
As suggested by several users, we (re)added camorama, xawtv, 
computertemp and exaile player as default packages for Parsix.

[ Build Queue System ]
An early version of the build queue system that helps developers to 
submit their packages to the build server has been uploaded to the SVN. 
We expect that a working version will be available before the end of
December. Thanks to Milad Rastian for his kind contribution to the 
project.

[ Next release code name: Viola ]
I decided to name the next major release of Parsix as Viola. It would 
be shipped with GNOME 2.22 and kernel 2.6.25 or 2.6.26 before the end 
of June 2008. Exact list of features and release plans will be decided 
later. Version number is not determined yet.

Have a very nice day,
