The changes are minimal, you can guess them from the release notes at
http://knopper.net/knoppix/knoppix67-en.html ("Known bugs"). Just a few
days after releasing the 6.7.0 versions, I was notified that the
keyboard navigation in the ADRIANE desktop was not working, and that
orca is expecting the braille driver at a different place now. While
this was hardly noticed by anyone using only the graphical desktops, it
is a severe problem for the blind-friendly ADRIANE version, which
definitely needs the keyboard screenreader navigation and working
braille support also in the graphical desktop.
Therefore, I updated the two ADRIANE CD versions (german and english)
only, fixing these two bugs, instead of uploading 10 more Gigabytes only
2 days after the first release.
After a while, when I get more feedback about the 6.7.0 version, and
there are enough updates scheduled (Kernel 3.0.x and new glibc may be a
good reason), I will make a 6.7.1 version.
