Brian Manderville has announced the availability of the second alpha release of Descent|OS 3.0, an Ubuntu-based distribution featuring the MATE desktop environment: "I  am pleased to announce that Descent|OS Alpha 2 has been released. Lots  of packages are now updated, and the MATE desktop seems to be behaving  nicely. That said, the only work really left to do until our projected  release date of August 29th is mainly cosmetic. The Plymouth theme needs  to be changed and branded into a Descent|OS boot screen, and the  Ubiquity install slide show has to be done as well. Apart from that, I  am confident it can be used daily, but am only calling it another alpha  in case more bugs show up and the fact that cosmetics are not completely  finished. Happy testing!"
Descent|OS is an Ubuntu-based desktop Linux distribution featuring a  traditional desktop environment (GNOME 2 in the 2.x series, MATE in  later versions). The project's mission is to provide an intuitive and  modern desktop environment anybody can use.
