It was exactly one year ago today when the sidux e. V. founders came together to hold their first constitutive meeting at IRC #sidux-ev. Immediately the first version of its Statutes was passed leading to the establishing of the Association (e. V.).
Apart from distributing free software, it is sidux e. V. aim, to support the sidux project financially as well as in legal matters.

What has originally been planned as minor maintenance release with the bumped kernel version as major feature, resulted in much larger changes for sidux 2008-01 "Νυξ". Now we have the pleasure to announce the first public preview of sidux 2008-01, shipping in a roughly ≈460 MB large kde-lite variant for amd64 and i386 systems. Please note this is not the final release, the full featured final release of "Νυξ" will be ready in about 2-3 weeks (depending on the availability of KDE 3.5.9 in Debian sid), intermediate xdeltas will be provided as needed until then.
