Hello!
Today I'm glad to announce our new release ROSA Desktop 2011 Extended Edition (ROSA Desktop EE). ROSA Desktop EE is based on ROSA/Mandriva 2011 repository including all updates and our new 'restricted' repository. This release is intended for people, who like a full distros (i.e Mandriva PowerPack), geeks, and professionals who use many applications. Also for people who have some problems with a internet access and want to have one .iso image for everything. What's new in this release towards ROSA Desktop 2011?
