NimbleX is now split into 9 parts for greater flexibility. LinuxDC++, Avidemux, the GSlapt Package Manager, and other software have been added. Many things were polished. Compiz was added and configured. The initrd is now designed to support PXE boot in the final version. There are many other changes.

Release Notes: The major highlights are the Experimental Safe Installer, better LZM compression, a split into 5 pieces, 9 desktop environments, and many other things.
