Hanthana Linux is a computer operating system based on the Fedora distribution, distributed as free and open source software.〔(Hanthana Official Website. )〕 It is specially designed to cater to the needs of Sri Lankan computer users who are unable to access the Internet frequently, with many most-wanted applications built in.〔(Hanthana's default software list. )〕 Hanthana is developed by the Sri Lanka-based Hanthana Community.〔(Hanthana Community. )〕 ==History and development process== Hanthana is a remix of the Fedora operating system. The original aim of the Hanthana team was to create an easy-to-use Linux desktop with as many useful applications preloaded, as downloading applications through Internet is not possible for many rural areas of Sri Lanka. Hanthana's first release was on 19 September 2009.〔(Hanthana Linux Blog » Blog Archive » Hanthana Linux Launched )〕 Since then, Hanthana community has released new versions of Hanthana every six months with commitment to support each release for eighteen months by providing security fixes, patches to critical bugs and minor updates to programs. Once a new Fedora version is released, after some time, the corresponding Hanthana version will be released and it contains all the software updates up to the date of release. Hanthana packages are based on packages from Fedora's: both distributions use RedHat's rpm package format and package management tools Yum (PackageKit). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hanthana Linux (operating system)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
