		<description><![CDATA[On the surface of it, this probably sounds a very strange thing to do: choose Linux Mint because they plan to stick with their current desktop interface for the foreseeable future and then stick a brand new one on there.

		<description><![CDATA[Ubuntu development is so gradual these days that there&#8217;s almost no point getting too excited about new versions. Its being a mature Linux distribution means that updates aren&#8217;t that much of an upheaval and I must admit to liking it than way. Taking a look at the first alpha release of Ubuntu 9.04, otherwise known [...]]]></description>

While the strap line says &#8220;News for Human Beings&#8221;, it seems to be the place to find out about development releases of the said Linux distribution.
