Anticapitalista has made available the first release candidate of antiX 8.5 for testing. In addition to fixing bug reports, this release has been updated to the most recent Debian Testing. Testers should report on the original thread or on the antiX forum.

Anticapitalista has announced that the fourth beta of antiX is available for testing. New features include the possibility of ext4 and the latest Debian Testing and MEPIS upgrades. Testing reports in the announcement thread or on the antiX forum.

A New Year's release of a new beta is available. After "a lot work on the look and feel of the KDE4 desktop," Warren comments that "It isn't final, but I think it's very close." Community input continues to be important in this development cycle, so testers are needed to provide feedback in the bug list on MepisLovers.

Just in time for the holidays, a third beta is up on the usual mirrors. Warren notes in his announcement that now the KDE 4.3.4 desktop and 2.6.32.2 kernel are included, along with Community-suggested improvements. We need continued testing, and any bugs can be posted in this MepisLovers thread.

Featuring an upgraded KDE 4.3, a second beta has been posted on the usual mirrors. In his announcement, Warren comments that Community suggestions have been incorporated into this version, with others to come later. Please help with the testing if you can, and post any bugs you find in the MepisLovers thread.
