Finally, after 4+ months of work, 30k is released. I'm not only exited about it, but i'm also relieved as well...after all of the upgrade probs,and other various issues...this IS the best BLAG release yet,and hopefully more people will convert to BLAG, and they will find out how great this distro really is. The next step being of course 40k...but that won't happen till at least 6 months down the road,and I have my doubts about it.

Also,I would like to give thanks to steve,jebba,jason,r7,and the other beta testers for doing a fabulous job of fixing/reporting bugs,and helping out in the irc channel.

Three Cheers for all the Blag team for a great job well done :D :D :D
I agree with the comment that 30K is the best Blag ever and I've been using it since 8K (remember the nights at Comtech Jeff?).

We will be doing the Acid Test on 30K this week, to see if it installs on one of those IBM Intestation servers without any problems (we still have the same grapics card Jeff :wink: )

30K works out the box on my TP23, just have to sort Suspend to Disk and it will be purrrrfect.
Thanks once again guys for the best and I will repeat THE BEST distro yet 8)

i just love it, there is something different with blag. it is much easier than most distro, even fedora. i mean i can yum or apt-get my way around the repositories. this is great improvement to linux in general

rpm has been keeping away from distros that depend on it, but i can now do without it.

good job and thanks a million times

Ah 30k is so sexy and so damn quick. The best release ever surpassing my old friend 8000. I remember the old times Vasco. I still have my copy of BLAG7992. Thanks everyone for the time and effort.
