OLPC (One Laptop per Child) OS developer James Cameron announced the availability of a new stable update for the Fedora-based GNU/Linux operating system used by default on those low-cost, connected OLPC laptops designed for children.

OLPC OS 13.2.8 is now the latest version of the distribution, and while it’s shipping with the newest Sugar 0.110 interface as default desktop environment, it appears to be based on a very old Fedora release, namely Fedora Linux 18, which was launched almost four years ago, on January 15, 2013.

“We’re pleased to announce the release of OLPC OS 13.2.8 for XO-1, XO-1.5, XO-1.75 and XO-4. It is Sugar 0.110 on Fedora 18, with updated activities Speak-52, Measure-53, Maze-26.1, Implode-17, GetBooks-16.2, Clock-18.1, and Chat-83,” said James Cameron in the mailing list announcement.

Now available for XO-1, XO-1.5, XO-1.75 and XO-4 OLPC models
