Выпуск дистрибутива OpenMandriva ROME 26.09

Проект OpenMandriva опубликовал релиз OpenMandriva ROME 26.09, редакции дистрибутива OpenMandriva, использующей модель непрерывной доставки обновлений (rolling-выпуски).

Для загрузки подготовлены iso-образы размером 3.2 ГБ c рабочими столами KDE, GNOME, LXQt, MATE и Xfce, поддерживающие загрузку в Live-режиме.
