Goodbye Ubuntu Center, Hello iCenterX

Ubuntu Center has been renamed to iCenterX and will be adding support for all distros of Linux and Mac OS X soon. This change will expand our userbase of testers resulting in a much better and less buggy product.

Good news, Ubuntu Center has a new name, iCenter X, and with this new name comes support for virtually all Linux distros and Mac OS X. This change was requested by dozens of people. I had planned to release a version for all distros later this year but yesterday I decided it would be better to do while the project is young. I am going to try my best to have a release of iCenterX out sometime in the next 2 weeks, I encourage people to continue downloading Ubuntu Center (if you run Ubuntu) until then. Unfortunately the theme system I talked about a few days ago won't be ready yet for that release but I assure you it is getting there, as is module support. We also have a new domain http://icenterx.info (yes I know .info is cheesy), update your bookmarks...I guess
Thanks to the people who have supported Ubuntu Center with donations, ideas, etc.

School is almost over for me so I will have lots of time to develop iCenterX this summer.

it would ave been good to see theme support (as then i could hopefully contribute :D) allthough deep down i know this is really whats best as more distros == more people to contribute.

smooth move. :)

No offense, but "iCenter X" is among the worst names ever.

Wow that's cool. Finally I can use ubuntu center in both of my OS's.

I don't understand...how will iCenterX be different than the Mac/PPC forum that's already here?

I totally agree with you. This name is not good :(

An announcement. The Ubuntu Center/iCenterX autor's server had a nasty HD crash and he says that he won't be able to recover from it and all he have so far is the ubuntu center alpha 1 files. If anyone happens to have the sources for the more recent versions of ubuntu center or iCenterX plz send it to him so he can at least continue development. Tnx.

Thanks of the concern, I did loose tons of data, unfortunately I don't have subversion so the most recent released version was alpha 1, I was the only one with the development files and I didn't make a backup because I am stupid. I am attempting to start on the development of the theme system again, this time it is slightly more easy then last time because I know how I want to do it.

I will also be renaming it (again) to webAbode or something similar to that.
