a while something like a new wave of distributions based on Arch Linux whose main differentiation with his mother distro is to provide easier installation and-something that also makes it distinguish between them, the dedication to a particular desktop environment. Manjaro is the case with Xfce, although the project has been introduced as alternatives has grown, it is also the case Cinnarch, which, as its name suggests, puts on an Arch Linux Cinnamon , Linux Mint mask that you put on GNOME 3.

 500x281 Cinnarch cinnarch for GNOME Cinnamon leaves, renaming sight

However, the future of Cinnarch not pass nor Cinnamon or very likely to still be called equal . It’s what they say on the official blog of the project and have their good reasons for such a drastic change. Apparently, Cinnamon is the best option for it, but the developers of Linux Mint are almost a year behind the bleeding edge of Arch Linux, thus maintaining everything working correctly becomes too costly task.

So while Arch Linux is preparing to welcome GNOME 3.8 in brief, the Cinnamon team is still in the process of migrating tools to work with the current version of the desktop environment. A difficult situation to keep it ends: Cinnarch will use GNOME 3.8 and GNOME Shell on Arch Linux , modeled rolling release feature.

given a change of such a level, those responsible for the distribution have been consistent and ask their users if should rename the project , and at that point it appears that the feedback and going to be.

If you’re out to try this Arch Linux cinnamon flavored, last week released their latest version, which is forecast to break soon.

Clement Lefebvre, the creator of Linux Mint, has announced on the official blog of the distribution that the next version of this distribution got his codename. As always, a woman’s name. In this case, Linux Mint 15 Olivia .

 500x313 linuxmint15 Linux Mint 15 already has a name: Olivia

The name, from the Latin, as Lefebvre himself points-means “olive tree”, and this tree represents “fertility, beauty and dignity”, which we assume try to be some of the hallmarks of Linux Mint 15 (although we will see how to take it in fertility ;) )

-distribution is expected by the end of May, and with some features profiled- be available in four versions with four desktop environments available:

Cinnamon

    • 1.8
    • MATE
    • KDE
    • Xfce

    Mark Shuttleworth has announced the codename for the future distribution of Canonical: Ubuntu 4.13 will Raring Ringtail , a name which in my opinion is quite cacophonous (ring ring) and also not too clear which animal is concerned: in fact if you look “ringtail” on wikipedia are different species that may allude that name.

     ubuntu raring ringtail April 13 500x337 The code name for Ubuntu 4.13 will Raring Ringtail

    This lemur is one of the possible animals that meet the definition of “ringtail”.

    The official announcement

    Shuttleworth explained what names has ruled and then pointed to some of the features that Ubuntu aims 13.04: “ It’s time to pay attention to the core of Ubuntu and analyze it with a” moving target “we measure our core mobile platform metrics, on issues such as battery life, the number of running processes , memory consumption, and we find those details pulamos to analyze these sections “.

    It seems that this distribution

    therefore pay special attention to Ubuntu deployment on mobile devices , paving the way for future versions of Ubuntu on smartphones, tablets and TV, which already announced a months and we already have one of those details that generate much debate: the codename of the distribution. Now, entrenad repeating the name three times as fast as you can. See if you do not trabáis ;)

    Indeed, for some dais is available roadmap (or roadmap) of this distribution our teams reach next April 25, 2013 .

    nicest phase for users when details of upcoming distributions is that of selection additional name of the distribution , which do not all distros but since then gives a unique touch to those who adopt this kind of alias for its various versions.

     500x324 Maya Linux Mint 13 and has a name, it will soon have Fedora 18

    for Linux Mint and Fedora, because in both cases were under way name selection process that would lead associated with both Linux Mint 13 and Fedora 18, the next editions of both distros.

    As noted in The H Open, in the case of Linux Mint 13 was Clement Lefebvre, the founder, in charge of choosing the name directly without any intervention or participation of the user community. And the name is decided by Lefebvre Linux Mint 13 “Maya” , in honor of his daughter, Maya civilization, the Maya Toitovna fictional character (of the Mars trilogy, Stanley Robinson) and Maya Bee legendary, if you are sure of my age that you also bring back fond memories.

    Fedora 18 the thing is still unclear, but members of the project and are voting for dedicir which is the name of Fedora 18, with 8 possibilities end have been selected from all candidates that users had been sent. The options are:

  • Chamoy
  • Frankfurter

  • Halva

  • Ketchy

  • Ketchup
  • Pamukkale
  • Soda Pop

  • Spherical Cow
  • Tandoori Chicken

  • Voting ends at midnight May 27 , and will then know what is the name associated with Fedora 18 (I like Ketchup Ketchy ;) ). In the original story remind us that in conjunction with that process in Fedora have launched a survey to see if future versions of the distribution will also have an associated name, which apparently is not quite decided.

    Fedora 17 already has a name: Miracle Beefy

    first_main_article” class=”article readability=”42″>

    have long commented that Fedora developers were already in the process of choosing the code name to be their future distribution. A Fedora 16 will eventually happen Verne Fedora 17 Beefy Miracle , a name that somehow reminds the form of Ubuntu.

     Fedora 17 beefy miracle has a name: Beefy Miracle

    name and ran in Fedora 16, and finally ended up being chosen for Fedora 17. The funny thing is that the name is not directly related to “Verne”, the name of F16, but “Lovelock”, the name of Fedora 15 . The explanation you have in the document with the names of candidates for Fedora 16. If you desplazáis Beefy’s description Miracle will see the following list:

    “Lovelock” is a string that when a specific algorithm is applied to an output of 5. So it is with Miracle Beefy.

    you read you some links on that page you will notice that apparently the Fedora developers have enough joke with the subject of meat , the algorithms and the particular choice of this name, so Fedora 17 is probably the Fedora distribution by the more “peculiar” in history, but since then, and remains.

    The vote, announced on the Fedora mailing lists, has been as follows:

    Votes:: Name

    ——————————-

     1182:: Beefy Miracle 1035:: Liege  881:: Never  791:: Gernsback  641:: Rocky Ripple  628:: Alpharabius  550:: Panguipulli  505:: Tubeteika 

    I do not know if I convinced … What do you think about you?

    Ubuntu 4.12 already has a name: Specify Pangolin

    first_main_article” class=”article readability=”41″>

    happens every few days before the final release of an edition of Ubuntu, Mark Shuttleworth has announced the codename for the next version, yet to begin to develop. We have name for Ubuntu 4.12 LTS : be ‘Precise Mangolin’, literal translation would mean “Precise Manis.”

     Ubuntu 4.12 1 pangolin has a name: Specify Pangolin

    manis, as Wikipedia explains, if not, what would have known, is a rather unique mammal whose body is covered in scales. According to Shuttleworth “ its scales are a marvel of detail and across a fashion statement. could also attest to its strength , and that often survives manis encounters with lions “.

    seems that these two features (design and hardness) are precisely Ubuntu 4.12 LTS database , a Long Term Support distribution to highlight the support ARM and x86 interchangeably, for support of Cloud Computing technology and a Unity which, according to Shuttleworth this post will be “elegant interface work well with clients both light and heavy “.

    Personally

    not tell me the name too, because while other “animals” that have been referred to past editions of Ubuntu did have its charm and were minimally known, the manis is a mystery. Anyway, do not worry, because from now hear a lot about Pangolin Precise .

    What name will Fedora 17?

    first_main_article” class=”article readability=”42″>

    Although we are still waiting the final release of Fedora 16 ‘Verne’, coming in November this year, responsible for community distribution sponsored by Red Hat have already begun the selection process codenamed Fedora 17 .

    What name will fedora Fedora 17?

    As you know, give their name to Fedora distributions through a process of selection of candidates always have to keep some link with the old name .

    For example, the relationship between Fedora and Fedora 16 15 Lovelock Verne was that in both cases responded to these writers names “futuristic”. The future name of Fedora 17 should be such that the relationship is not the same , and also has to be different from any other previous relationships that have been chosen in previous versions of Fedora.

    several names available as candidates for Fedora 17, and the collection process candidates names will run until September 20th , while the final list approved by the board of Fedora will be completed between 24 and 30 September.

    final voting will take place between September 30 and October 6, and WIN the final name of Fedora 17 will be known on October 7 .

    Among the current candidates to me personally, I like the following

    Piccard

  • Neptune
  • McFly
  • Atlantis
  • We’ll see if my

    betting is right;)

    GNOME and KDE, a name problems

    first_main_article” class=”article readability=”40″>

    After seeing the early stages of the game of chess begins to play Google and Mozilla, we find more trouble, this time by name and as protagonists of the story developers GNOME and KDE , or rather the movements of some of these. Sea

    KDE vs GNOME GNOME and KDE, a name problems

    First of all should get down to the kick-off as a message to Ben Cooksley, maintainer of KDE System Settings , published in the KDE mailing lists and and is debated in social networks and forums (full translation):

    all interested developers:

    can or may not be aware, the name of System Preferences (System Settings in English) I currently use KDE. A recent renaming of the GNOME Control Center (GNOME Control Center in English) to create a conflict with the names. As a result of this change of name may cause serious problems for users. It can also cause problems for those members who support the use KDE applications in GNOME KDE, it will not be able to set preferences for KDE applications.

    This is because both names will appear, leading packagers stupidly GNOME patching the system to not display the System Preferences in GNOME KDE.

    KDE used the name first, is ours, and not dispense it to satisfy personal desires (selfish) that will cause many problems on both sides. The System Preferences are not only displayed in KDE, since it is an application used to configure multiple options shared between KDE applications and localization (language, region, currency, calendar), visual style, colors, or fonts, among others.

    maintainer of KDE System Preferences renombréis immediately request that your configuration a name that does not conflict.

    Greetings

    Ben Cooksley
    Maintainer of KDE System Settings

    said, the mess is served, and the worst is that it only raises questions about it. Because it is true that GNOME developers could have acted differently , but is also true that a name as generic as “system settings” is difficult for anyone to be the owner … (Windows, Apple , Facebook … ¿!?).

    Well, what do you think?

    The domain name “Sex.com” is officially the world’s most expensive

    sexdotcom The domain

    time ago we had commented that the domain “Sex.com” had been sold by the extraordinary sum of $ 13 million . At the time it unofficially named as the most expensive Internet domain, and now it’s time official recognition .

    is that the transaction was finally attached to Guinness World Records . We can not say that it is extremely worthwhile, but it is still curious to note, leaving it clear that sex is the best selling in the web.

    id=”more-14086″>

    The company responsible for participating as an intermediary in the sale of this domain was Sedo This company is a leading global platform for buying and selling Internet addresses.

    Many companies linked to the distribution of pornography had shown interest in acquiring this domain, although it was finally Clover Holdings where the banknotes to be put with the web address on 17 November.

    particular fact of this transaction is that Sedo said that in his ten years of existence of domain transactions monitored by about 400 million dollars, charge of the sale of some highly prized Internet addresses like “Pizza. com “,” Russia.com “and” Vodka.com “among others .

    This is to understand the extent earned by “Sex.com”, as the price paid for the single domain represents a significant percentage of total company sales .

    It should also be borne in mind that the Guinness World Record was obtained by the mediation of the sale but there is the slightest possibility that more money has been paid by another domain privately.
