Puppy Linux 3.01 is out and the stabilization of the Puppy 3 series will continue into 3.02 and the community Talking Stick version 3.03 of Puppy. Puppy is the basis of our Open Source Time Travel Operating System

Barry and Vincent (aka ‘piglet’)
As usual Barry Kauler orchestrates and implements major change into the Linux distro with a loyal kennel of users. The major change is Slackware depository compatibility. Slackware is the most established and Unix like distribution. That means more software available. You lucky canines.

• Puppy is small enough to run from ram,
• Easy enough for Windows users,
• Penguin enough for Geeks,
• Reliable enough to use for your own distro.

The excellent but decidely Latvian Austrumi, is a full Slackware clone but Puppy is its own dog. So far NOP and Tmxxine derivative puplets based on 3.01 are also available.

MU relaxing One of the Senior Developers (also known as Puppy Masters), Mark Ulrich is now being employed to work on aspects of Puppy by a German company. Barry Kauler the creator, has turned down commercial jobs offers to develop Puppy.

With a Puppy marketing budget of 0$ and developers working for free, Puppy software is free under the GPL. Puppy has never been a commercially orientated distribution.

Just as well, it is priceless.
