Hi everybody,

I'm pleased to announce the availability of the Sugar on a Stick v2 Beta 
Release. This release includes already a preview of the features in the 
upcoming final release, which is due to November 24 right now.

Major updates have been applied and we are now shipping the Fedora 12 
Alpha base system as well as the latest Sugar 0.85.3 release. 
Additionally, we are now shipping the zyx-liveinstalller by default.

Please download and test your version of this release from here:

When placing the image on your USB key, please use either 
liveusb-creator [1] for Windows or livecd-iso-to-disk [2] for Linux. We 
are also providing an appliance image for use with VirtualBox, as well 
as VMware, to allow even Mac users to test Sugar on a Stick [3]. Later 
in the development cycle, SoaS will also feature specific images the XO.

Finally, please note also that we are going to have a test day on SoaS 
with Fedora QA this Thursday. More information will be provided later.

In case you encounter any issues, please report them at our bug tracker:
