This release contains a new desktop theme and a detailed user manual, both developed and contributed by the MEPIS community.

When asked about future plans for MEPIS, Warren said "Already the community wants to make improvements to the excellent desktop theme they created recently. And there's always more to be done. I think we'll have a minor update to the isos about once a month. Then around April or May we can start the process of synchronizing with the upcoming Debian Lenny release."

ISO images are in the 'released' subdirectory at the MEPIS Subscriber's Site and at the MEPIS public mirrors. To support the ongoing development of MEPIS, please go to the MEPIS store and become a MEPIS subscriber.
