The third mantainance release for eyeOS 1.6 has been released, and can be downloaded from the eyeOS Downloads Page. For those users using the eyeOS Free Server, it’s already running the new version, so just log in!

This new version includes full compatibility with Firefox 3.0 and many minor bug fixes in services, libraries and applications. It does not include any security fix, but it’s recommended to all eyeOS system administrators.

Once again, we must thank the eyeOS Development Community, which is getting involucrated into every new eyeOS release, mainly through the eyeOS Development Mailing List, which is becoming more active every day.

To see the full change log, please continue reading.
