Xandros says it will move the Freespire Linux distribution that it acquired from Linspire to Debian's forthcoming Lenny release.Xandros officials say they will release a new version of Freespire that will be based on Debian's forthcoming Lenny release, expected this fall.
The decision to base Freespire on the Debian Linux distribution
comes only a month after Xandros acquired Linspire, the developer of
Freespire. Freespire is a free version of Linspire and was previously
based on Ubuntu.
Xandros says it plans to "consolidate" its various offerings on Debian, following its acquisition of Linspire.
Following the release of a Lenny-based Freespire distribution, Xandros plans to bring out Xandros Desktop
Professional 5, which will also be built on "the same open-source code
base," with added proprietary bits for "enterprise customers," the
company says.
Tom House, Freespire community organizer, stated, "This is really some
of the most exciting news since the announcement of Freespire 1.0. This
is what we were hoping to see: both the continued development of
Freespire and a return to a Debian base."
