Great news from the land of Beethoven, Nietzsche and Beckenbauer! Thanks to Florian Bruch, GoboLinux.org now has its first international translation: schau auf GoboLinux.org! Thanks also to Holger Schuh who contributed the installation instructions page. But there are still lots of pages where you can help. Übersetzer gesucht!
And last but not the least, now we have a German download mirror as well! Thanks to Marten Michaelsen, you can download GoboLinux directly from the aptly called gobolinux.de (also linked in the downloads page as usual). Vielen, vielen dank an die Deutschesgobolinuxgemeinschaft! (gotta love these long words ;-) )

We are pleased to introduce GoboLinux 011, the new major release of GoboLinux, the alternative Linux distribution. This release features the introduction of Compile, a new source-based compilation system. Other distinctive features are the switch to the kernel 2.6 series (2.4 still included), adoption of the Xorg X11 server, and a large number of upgraded packages.

This version is far more stable than beta1, and is almost a release candidate. The main item remaining to be done is the addition of a kernel 2.6.6 image. Probably, 011 final will be released in the next few days, so any report on this version is very, very welcome.

Finally our DNS issues are solved. We were migrating our servers due to the constant problems that lead gobolinux.org to become unavailable for a few hours/days very frequently. The downtime issues should be fixed for now.
