Merry Christmas to everyone in the Frugalware community. Even if you don’t celebrate Christmas as a Christian festival, it’s a good time to reflect on your achievements and plan for the year ahead. 2010 has been an interesting, exciting and productive year for Frugalware Linux. Events have included many new developers and contributors. Thankyou to everyone who has contributed to our success, including: developers, contributors, translators, artists, bloggers, those who reported bugs and everyone who participated in the mailing lists and forums. In a community like Frugalware’s, everyone’s contribution is vital to our success. Plans for 2011 are still in development, but you can be sure it will be even more busy and exciting than 2010. In the meantime, we wish you the very best of the season and look forward to “seeing” you again next year.
