Clement Lefebvre has announced the first beta release of Linux Mint 3.0, code name "Cassandra": "This is the first beta release of Cassandra. The system is stable but some work is ongoing in 'mintinstall', 'mintmenu' and in the artwork. For this reason this is not considered a release candidate. Important new features: GNOME 2.18 (speed improvements); kernel 2.6.20 (better hardware support); Ubuntu Feisty innovations (restricted manager, desktop effects, Windows migration assistant, Avahi); OpenOffice.org 2.2; Thunderbird replaces Evolution as the default email reader; GIMP is installed by default; GNOME Control Center replaces mintConfig as the default control center application; drag & drop support in mintMenu with many other improvements; Sun Java 6 replaces Sun Java 5; Compiz, Beryl and Emerald installed by default."
