The Trinity Desktop Environment (TDE) development team is pleased to
announce the immediate availability of the new TDE R14.0.4 release. The
Trinity Desktop Environment is a complete software desktop environment
designed for Unix-like operating systems, intended for computer users
preferring a traditional desktop model, and is free/libre software.
R14.0.4 is the fourth maintenance release of the R14.0 series, and is
built on and improves the previous R14.0.3 version. Maintenance releases
are intended to promptly bring bug fixes to users, while preserving
overall stability through the avoidance of both new features and major
codebase re-factoring.

FreeBSD Support
Support for FreeBSD is still partial and some new issues have arisen with
the latest versions of FreeBSD. The TDE team will try their best to
improve support for FreeBSD but progress will probably be slow. Additional
developers or contributors willing to help porting the remaining features
and applications are always welcome.
Getting TDE
Installation instructions and binary packages are immediately available
for Debian and Ubuntu. Packages for RedHat/CentOs, Fedora, Mageia,
OpenSUSE, and PCLinuxOS are being built by their respective maintainers
and will be made available at a later date.
Live CDs with TDE R14.0.4 preinstalled are available on the LiveCDs page.
