A new major update of The Linux Signpost

[Arnt Ove Gregersen <arntogle@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

We have now released a major new update of The Linux Signpost, which is a site for finding Linux software.

http://linuxsignpost.org

It is has been redesigned and all non finding software functionality has been removed, along with the overview of educational software (Spisekartet) that was not so well maintained or used.

Other changes are:

• Added support for showing if software is Kde or Gnome based
• Added Captcha to avoid robot spam

• Added support for software suites by creating an association between software like for instance OpenOffice and Writer

• Added support for YouTubeVideos

• Added static list of software for crawlers (robots.txt)
• Added system for importing software data directly from debian packages
• Reorginazied the categories

For more information see our project page:

Please let us know if you have comments or feedback in any way.

Have a nice day!
