The Trinity Desktop Environment (TDE) development team is pleased to
announce the immediate availability of the new TDE R14.0.2 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.
R14.0.2 is the second maintenance release of the R14.0 series, and is
built on and improves the previous R14.0.1 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 improving - the port of a first group of
applications is now completed! However, there are still some issues that
need to be addressed before full FreeBSD support can be achieved.
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 R14.0.2 preinstalled are available on the LiveCDs page.

Developers Wanted
The TDE development team is small but friendly. If you wish to participate
in the TDE development process, please visit the Get involved page for
additional information.
Contribute to the TDE Project
Creating TDE requires significant computing resources and bandwidth.
Please consider helping to keep us online with a donation on our donations
page at https://www.trinitydesktop.org/donate.php .
In particular, the TDE project is looking to extend full support to the
OpenPOWER platform, using real OpenPOWER hardware, as this may be the only
open workstation/server class computing platform available in the future.
Please help us to do this with your donations.
Thank you for your ongoing support. Without your financial assistance, TDE
would not be possible!
