David Abbott has announced the release of Gentoo

cutting-edge state of Gentoo and it does not provide a hard disk
installation program. From the release announcement: "Gentoo

Linux kernel 3.1.5, X.Org Server 1.10.4, KDE 4.7.4, GNOME 3.2.1, Xfce
4.8, Fluxbox 1.3.2, Firefox 9.0, LibreOffice 3.4.99.2, GIMP 2.6.11,
Blender 2.60, Amarok 2.5, VLC 1.1.13, Chromium 16.0 and much more.
Special features: writable file systems using Aufs so you can emerge new
