From KateOS website:

We are looking specifically for people who can code in C++ with experience in object-oriented programming. We’re also looking for people who know Java and/or PHP who’d like to create user applications. New programmers are indispensible for the work on KateOS 4 to be completed. At the same time we’d like to inform our userbase that the release of KateOS 4 will be delayed. Piotr Korzuszek, one of the most active developers of our project and the creator of many essential parts of our system (including libsmarttools library and libpkg package manager) is leaving us. Because of personal issues, Chudy doesn’t have time to work on these projects anymore. It’s an abrupt and significant loss for our project, as we don’t have spare coders who could take his place. Therefore, the release of KateOS 4 will be delayed until we find new programmers. We’d like to apologize to our users who’ve been looking forward to the release of the new version for some time now. We’d also like to remind you all that KateOS is a non-profit project created by enthusiasts who aren’t getting paid for their work.

EasyLin is a project that aims to be useful for those who have devices that are not supported by their Operating System (currently officially supported system is Ubuntu).

which means, that this program is going to help you install and configure various hardware not installed by default. That’s a big step toward spreading Linux :)

• Configuration window is displayed complete (previously the corners were cut off)
• >Corrected graphics (logo, font colour)
• Adding fonts’ substitutes
• Breaking connection instead of killing whole process when critical error appears
• Adding default DNS servers for certain services (only for some services)
• Default DNS servers setup by each connection (saved in concig file - if user has chosen OpenDNS or there were no default servers set for chosen service, OpenDNS is chosen by default)
• Minor changes in some PPPoE connections
• Many patches providing better openSUSE support
• Updated ‘about’ window

Kadu is polish posix Qt Instant Messenger. As for now it supports only polish protocol - Gadu-Gadu, but users are trying to convince developers to add support for some others (especially Jabber). It seems they don’t want to do it, but are open for help, so if anyone would like to write it… :)

Its turn based, web-browser, fantasy MMORPG written in PHP and MySQL (but may work with many other databases) with Smarty Template Engine, ADOdb and PHP Mailer. Based on Gamers-Fusion ver 2.5 with many modyfications in security, speed and features

So much for now - I hope I could write some revision after using it.

In the age, when there are multiple highly developed free content management systems I cannot honestly recommend PHP BP to you.

Infoc was designed to gather maximum amount of information about your system. It is based on PERL and user interface is based on Curses library.

All info is categorized in pages (Memory, Software etc.). Each page contains subcategories window. Each displayed window can be customized with details what kind of information you want to display.

To properly run application terminal window should have minimum 120×50 size. It is necessary to run program and properly display all information window. To get maximum information from your system you should have installed following applications:

- whereis (obligatory)

- awk (obligatory)

- tr (obligatory)

- find

- apropos

- whatis

- whereis

- etc …

- compiled proc and sysfs filesystem.

Linux-EduCD is educational-scientific LiveCD distribution. It is complete and wprking OS boot directly from CD/DVD. It doesn’t require installation, which is, nonetheless, possible as in case of every other typical Linux distro.

It aims at possibly simpliest way of using and installing. As a distro based on Debian Testing/SID and Knoppix / Kanotix, it is equipped in tols, wich automaticly configure hardware while booting. Primarily it was only to contain educational and scientific packages, and multimedia, but in the course of time it was expanded by HTTP and database server software. It is also extended by office applications and diagnostic tools. There is also polish manual prepared (description of installation and configuration of system and additional educational software from CD) - and next versions of this manual are distributed (in pdf format) with Linux-EduCD ISO images altogether.

Linux-EduCD’s software are educational, graphic-manipulation, office and multimedia applications. DVD version includes also the ones related to network monitoring and safety, e.g.: Wireshark, Nessus with additional plugins, Nmap, steganography tools… This distro doesn’t require practically any other configuration (of course except for printer or network - if we don’t use DHCP). It starts with ready-to-go  graphical interface (KDE). Polish is the default distro’s language. CD editions have configured LTSP serwer (allows many people to simultaneously use the same computer). Furthermore there is a lot of scientific (e.g. Scilab, GFortran, GAP, Yacas, Celestia, OpenDX, PyMOL) educational (Kalzium, Kstars, Keduca, DrGeo, TuxMath, Stellarium, XDrawChem, GPeriodic) software and developers’ tools (e.g. JDK, Eclipse, Mono with Gtk# and F#, Ada95 and 2005, Fortran, Prolog, Ruby, OCaml, SML, Scheme). There are also available scripts helping to install nvidia and ati drivers and graphic firewall configuration programm (working also from LiveCD).
