I ran Gekko's blog through GoogleTranslate. Some interesting translations:
Yet another volcanic birth of the minds behind LinuxBBQ
Now I think we need a release called Stromboli.
Since killX is designed to give a shot of life to those who are accustomed to Linux versions in which the jelly is ready, it will guide you in the configuration.
I had no idea that the jelly was ready. Who knew?

I had noticed the first quote, which I love. Accurate translation or not. Didn't notice the second

I think the first quote should be part of every release note; it's great.

hahaha super nice idea Pidsley, i love these translations :)
All statements are true in some sense, false in some sense, meaningless in some sense, true and false in some sense, true and meaningless in some sense, false and meaningless in some sense, and true and false and meaningless in some sense.

Nice. I felt a bit cheated though, it stopped right before the review would start. Was very positive though. Gotta appreciate that. And featured Old School, coolness. The comments didn't translate, didn't feel much like popping each in a translate tool.

Thanks for sharing!

Funny, I had a little "argument" with Roberto (the owner of lffl and author of that piece) a while ago. I also posted on my twitter about Old School the day before yesterday and surprisingly he tried that. Or maybe I'm just too paranoid as usual.

Great, Pid's work in the news.

No problem Paolo, thanks, I mean this is also the news section but let me see if I clone it to the other thread just for propaganda sake.

Phew, the only real criticism I see is the old complaint about fragmentation in Linux world. Well, sorry, but it is the main distros that don't cater the edges of the market.

So, thanks for the link. We survived Italy :)

Yep, first we conquered Russia, then Poland and now Italy, ha. I thought it should work the other way.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who has either contributed to the grill or downloaded and tried (and even removed) one or more of our editions:
