Interesting and weird they didn't announce about it, why we need special edition while we have new release?
maybe its the latest bugs free version of Warty ?

A diff on the list files shows only minor differences in versions in some of the packages. Might be warty + all security updates? (packages updated include apache, samba, ssh, xfree libs, I suspect these would be quite vulnerable to security threats?)

That leads me to another question...: does anybody know of a program similair to diff but for gnome? Some program that shows two files side by side and marks the differences with colors perhaps?
