ClearOS Profesional 6.2.0 Beta 2 Release Information

Released: December 22, 2011

If you do not want to read these release notes (you should!), please at least read the following two bullet items:

  • Please do not run this in a production environment
  • Please do not upgrade from previous versions

ClearOS Enterprise 6.2.0 Beta 2 has arrived! Hey, what happened to the version number - wasn't it version 6.1.0? Well, the latest ClearOS release is built on source code from a prominent North American Linux vendor. This upstream vendor released their 6.2 update earlier this month and we quickly followed suit. For the curious, you can find more information on ClearOS version numbering here.

Along with the release of more than a dozen new apps (see below), this release continues the process of creating a stable base system: installer, RPM packages, users, groups, system tools, LDAP, network, firewall, framework, and Marketplace.

If you have not already done so, please review the introduction to test releases.
