Linux Deepin is an active community Linux distribution providing a highly localized Chinese desktop based on Ubuntu. Its second (but unexpected) release candidate for version 10.12 turned up soon after the first one; this is the result of an abundance of feedbacks from testers, and the pursuit of an "as bug-free as possible" official release right before the New Year necessitates this RC2. The good news is that RC2 can be had by upgrading from RC1; for those who prefer a fresh installation, everything has been packed into just one CD image instead of a bulky DVD one. Following the Deepin philosophy, user experience has again been improved, in terms of both Chinese input/rendering and a more reasonable selection of various localised applications. The NTFS handling glitch and other bugs have been fixed. Find more in the release announcement (in Chinese) which includes two screenshots. Download: deepin-10.12-rc2-i386.iso (693MB, MD5).

Linux Deepin is an active community Linux distribution providing a highly localized Chinese desktop based on Ubuntu, and its 10.12 release candidate hit the download mirrors just ten days after the beta version. One amazing feature is that the DeepWin installer, a customized Wubi, can be seamlessly integrated into Windows as an ordinary program; Windows users only need to run from the control panel to install or uninstall Deepin Linux. The release candidate also improves the desktop by adding nine web-orientated applications based on Firefox and Prism; all nine are representative applications popular in China but are rarely included in other Linux distributions. The Yong input method has been upgraded and also tweaked for better user experience. This release candidate serves as a preview of the final release before the new year; no changes except bug fixes will be considered. See the release announcement (in Chinese) with a few screenshots.
