The Italian -it version of the the sidux Operating System manual hits the sidux site with zenren and speedygeo as translators and maintainers !!!!

The Italian version of sidux-manuals has been in the works for nearly 14 months. It was started by alessiog75, then dedo picked it up, (unfortunately he could not continue either), followed months later by fortalomo whom has subsequently moved continents.

Then along came speedygeo and zenren. zenren really put the foot to the floor in true Italian fashion!

sidux e.V. is pleased to present to you today the first version of sidux-seminarix here for download. This is a educational project that merges Seminarix with the base of sidux. Seminarix is aimed at schooling teachers as well as pupils with free and open software to make computer training in schools less costly and more effective. The project was initiated in March 2007 by Wolf-Dieter Zimmermann, who works in the education of students for a teaching credential. First based upon Kubuntu, sidux e.V. started to port it to sidux with the help of teachers and interested users. With sidux as a powerfull free and open Linux distribution the Seminarix project now has a fast, easy to maintain and always current base.

A lot later than planned, but now we have the pleasure to announce the immediate availability of sidux 2008-01 "Νυξ", shipping in roughly ≈435 MB kde-lite flavours for amd64 and i386 (i686), a combined i386+amd64 release with ≈1470 MB KDE for kde-full and an xdelta to add initial localisations for all currently supported languages.

sidux is a full featured Debian sid based live CD with a special focus on hard disk installations, a clean upgrade path within sid and additional hard- and software support. The ISO is completely based on Debian sid, enriched and stabilized with sidux' own packages and scripts.

Dazu Dank an aomori und riepernet!
