The Fedora Unity Project recently announced the immediate availability of a new set of Re-Spins for the Fedora 10 Linux distribution. The new ISOs, based on the official Fedora 10 (Sulphur) installation media, include all the updates released until the 14th of April and are available in a stable state for the i386 and x86_64 architectures. There is also an ISO available for PPC processor architectures, but it is still marked as UNSTABLE by the Fedora Unity Project - users are welcomed to test it out and provide feedback.

"The Fedora Unity Project is proud to announce the release of new ISO Re-Spins of Fedora 10. These Re-Spin ISOs are based on the officially released Fedora 10 installation media and include all updates released as of April 14th, 2009 (saving about 650MB in updates on a default install)." said Ben Williams in the official release announcement.

However, some package groups in the x86_64 and PPC ISOs had to be removed from this spin, as otherwise the distribution would not fit on a single DVD. These packages are: gnome-software development; java-development; kde-software-development; web-development; x-software-development; dns-server (added a nodefaults version); ftp-server (added a nodefaults version); news-server; smb-server (added a nodefaults version); sql-server (added a nodefaults version); web-server.

The Fedora Unity Re-Spins is a community project and was created to provide users with a fresh, up-to-date installation of the Fedora Linux distribution. Fedora is an operating system based on the Linux kernel, and which focuses on wide access, distribution and free modification. It's built by a worldwide community (the Fedora Project), which grants access to anyone wishing to further advance the development of open-source software.
