Anything goes - Why no releases , only "hidden" ones vilde - Oct 12, 2009 - 11:37 PM Post subject: Why no releases , only "hidden" ones
Long time since I was logged in but I have a look in this forum then and then. There is no new official releases coming at all but as I can read here and there there are unofficial or hidden releases that you can get through via irc. Why is it like that?
I mean, looking at the start site here it looks like Kanotix died totally. But I think something is happening under the surface the whole time or am I wrong?
Please can somebody explain?

Yes, I agree. For those people who are not familiar with IRC or don't like it, there could be the impression that Kanotix is dead. But it isn't - it's more alive than some other distro.
I can not speculate about the reasons why there is still no official release, at least a RC or for my part a Alpha. But I think Kano is a perfectionist with the goal that Kanotix must run perfectly on all (or most) hardware.
Take a look at the IRC and ask Kano for a current .iso. That's the way how to get Kanotix at the moment.

I agree too.
Nevertheless you can "manage" it, without public release.
Kano is supporting in both forums, English and German. But the German part of the Community is more active.
