Kororaa 14 Beta2 released

[Chris Smart]

If anyone's interested, Beta2 has been released (https://kororaa.org/download).

This release includes several fixes, updates, as well as the following
major changes:

* GNOME version – that’s right, now Kororaa comes with GNOME too!
    * GNOME Shell – experience the future of the GNOME desktop (turn
on manually, or pass “gnome-shell” to kernel)
    * Elementary icon set and GTK theme for GNOME
    * KDE updated to 4.5.5
    * LibreOffice replaces OpenOffice.org
    * KSplice support – stay secure with rebootless kernel updates!
    * Lennart Poettering’s “200 line patch” bash version included
    * Updated extras installer now supports AMD/ATI video drivers (as
well as Flash and NVIDIA)

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Chris

Well, since you asked... I think it sounds pretty cool! Will give it a
try soon enough.

My attempts to try this out (after having asked for it!) have 
been attended by great difficulty and annoyance, as Mark Twain said of 
learning German.

But I have tried it, on an EeePC 701, and liked it. I don't use a 
word processor, though, and I've no more than heard of LibreOffice; so I 
gave the live DVD to my wife, who has written two or three books with OOo, 
and will pass on her reaction when I get it.

Many than ks for your excellent efforts!

Cool, thanks Beta3 is out now too, with the next to come in a few
weeks, hopefully.
