Ubuntu Knot 3 Available
The third development release of Ubuntu family is available.
The most important thing, in my opinion is that "Common to all variants, we have changed the init system from the venerable sysvinit to upstart which is an event-driven init script system". This has many advantages. Faster boot and shutdown are two of them.
Xubuntu Knot 3 comes with Xfce 4.4 RC1 so its a good option for those willing to have but don't want to compile it. Of course, since it's a pre-release you can expect some bugs.
Read more in the announcement and the Knot 3 page.
