Hi all,
on http://compartida.net/openmoko/FDOM/ you have disponible the new FDOM
release.
I have just erase previous release because there are some annoying bugs
withs calls and no sound.
But his has gone thanks to nickd,

This release  is not as tested as 2008.08 ones but include things, that
sure,  gonna make you smile, 29 Games :), orrery 2.0, a mplayer frontend
pythm, and things than have the last updated not anounced jalimo with
java se and me, navit, linphone (not tested but surely some people will
smile twice, isn't it Michel Siloh? :) ) in addition to FDOM
"classics" :)

As you may notice this is a large amount of programs so in order to not
blow away the home with icons I have included a raw,dirty, and a little
bit slow script in pygtk that acts as popupmenu /usr/bin/FDsubmenu.py,
surely a c/elf program will be more quick and integrated but just I have
no time to learn it(yet). Futures versions will include the icon image.
Feel free to modify and add features of course.

Regarding colaborations , First thanks nacho and armin because without
them this release will has not been posible, 
if you want to colaborate reporting bugs,improvements or sugestions we
have a project in http://projects.openmoko.org/projects/fdom/ with a
devel list
http://lists.projects.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/fdom-development

thanks to armin, we have also a svn server svn://zoup.org/Fdom with an
2008.09 that we want to transform in a better FDOM but here I call for
help, Armin has his neo temporaly out of order, and I was unable to put
the svn checkout to boot in a sd card, I want to do this to be able to
have a quick way to summit changes, and have a more efective way to make
various people to tweak the distro at same time.    
So if any one succeded to boot froma svn extraction please contacr us to
tell us how
I will try to update the wiki tomorrow with the modifications but any
help will be apreciated here too :)   

I have not included the kernel image because still the 2008.09 one
