Announcing a partnership with GMV
By Pau Garcia-Milà | June, 10 2008 | Events, Partnerships
We’re happy to announce a new partnership with GMV, which will deliver new and exciting projects based on the Open Knowledge, by joining the experience and expertise from GMV and the Open Source eyeOS Web Desktop Platform to provide enterprise-ready Web Desktop Solutions, expanding the eyeOS usage worldwide.

GMV is a technological enterprise group with an international presence which operates in nine large sectors: Aeronautics, Space, Defense, Health, Security, Transportation, Telecommunications and Information Technologies for public and private organizations. You can read more about GMV in this document [PDF, 1.5MB, 24p].
We would like to thank the whole GMV team (with a special effort on the SGI -Global Internet Solutions- part of the company) who has trusted the eyeOS platform since its begginings and is now entering a new step in the Web Desktop Solutions, with our team.
All the benefits derived from this new partnership will be noticeable from the eyeOS Open Source Platform and the eyeOS Community, starting with some public events late 2008 that will be announced this summer.
eyeOS events during June 2008 (in Spain)
By Pau Garcia-Milà | June, 1 2008 | Events
If you are in Spain during June, you will have some opportunities to discover eyeOS and the eyeOS Team point of view concerning Web Operating Systems and Open Source software in the following (free) events/conferences:
-Suscipe Enterpeneurs Forum (in Madrid), on June 4th, to present the project, its history and future. You can confirm the assistance in this page.
-The Coffee Break 2008 (in Cáceres) on June 13th and 14th.
And possibly, another one on June 26th in Ourense (still to be confirmed). We’ll soon confirm this last one and publish some other events during July, in Spain.
If you are interested in the eyeOS Team to give a conference in your University/Forum/Company, please contact at team @ eyeos.org.
One month after the eyeOS 1.6 release, we are happy to announce the immediate availability of the first maintenance release to the 1.6 branch: eyeOS 1.6.0.1.
This particular release doesn’t contain any security fix, but it’s recommended to all eyeOS system administrators to update, since it contains important bugfixes and small new features, such as the Internet Explorer 6 support, the import and export (with OPML format) in eyeFeeds or the new session language selection in the Login Screen.
You can download the new release from the downloads page and view the full changelog in the Developer’s center.
On the other hand, the eyeOS Project reached yesterday 300.000 downloads from the SourceForge servers. This is a good moment to say thanks to SourceForge for the great service they provide to eyeOS and more than 170.000 other projects.

As the first post of a new serie (Applications from Community) we want to review eyeShow, a great application created by Edouard Daubin and using Slimey, to create and view presentations in eyeOS.
This application is fully integrated with the eyeOS Filesystem and dialogs and will let you load and save your presentations from inside eyeOS.
From its website:
eyeShow has a post in the eyeOS Forums where you can make suggestions and discuss the application here.
