Ubuntu CE v5.0 "Jaunty" Released!!!

[mhancoc7]

Great news!! Ubuntu CE is alive again! A huge thanks goes out to David Kuntadi who has taken on the task of developing the debs for the Dansguardian GUI, e-Sword Installer, Bible Trivia, OpenSong, linBread, etc. He is also keeping our new repository organized and updated.

The release of Ubuntu CE v5.0 based on Ubuntu 9.04 is now available for download as well as from our repos. This has been a request from the very beginning. We are excited that now standard Ubuntu users cans simply install Ubuntu CE using apt-get or Synaptic.

Download Here
Installation Instructions Here

This release is a back to basics release and should be considered beta at this point. We are focusing on the functionality for now and will work towards the aesthetics.

The full package list can be found here.

I will continue to be the Project Lead and will be in charge of the iso builds and website. David Kuntadi is now the Development Lead and will be in charge of the deb packages and repos. We will be looking for a person who is willing to take charge of the themes, graphics, and artwork for the next release. If you are interested you can send a note to support@ubuntuce.com.

God Bless, Jereme
Project Lead

Glad to hear, I was sad when I heard it was being discontinued. Thanks to all who have put forth their efforts to continue this project on further. Downloading it now to try it out, the graphical dan's guardian configuration works pretty good in church enviroments as well I must say. No complaints thus far. (of course using previous release)

Superb news to hear you are back and that there will continue to be a Christian version!

I want to congratulate the team ! I am glad to see Christian Linuxeros, as one feels a bit lonely from time to time in the FLOSS community

I will install your work from the repos, on my Ubuntu partition.

Those days I am mostly using CentOS 5.3, as it is very stable & reliable, and I noticed the complete lack of any Bible software for RHEL clones...

I am wondering if there's a way to have GnomeSWORD, or BibleTIME backported for EL5...

Anyway, keep on the good works, God bless you all !!!

Thanks every one who took time to put out the new version. It is especially nice to know it can be upgraded to Christian Edition from a normal Ubuntu now. God Bless you brothers and sisters.
