Trisquel on a Sugar TOAST

Editions published today include the GNOME based standard edition, the 
LXDE mini edition, and the now officially supported Trisquel on a Sugar 
TOAST edition, designed for kids 0 to 12. It features the Sugar Learning 
environment and a preselection of educational activities.
New Website

The improvements don't stop at the software. We are also unveiling a new 
website theme, cleaner and more modern, to match the streamlined style 
of the release. This is just the first change in a series of 
improvements that will focus on giving the users a better community 
experience.
New development process

We are also making big changes to the development process, to make it 
easier for the community to contribute. The new code management website 
allows users to clone the code, hack and request their changes to be 
reviewed and merged. This is connected to a whole new continuous 
integration build system that will keep the distro up to date with less 
manual intervention.
