[arch-general] Good press at distrowatch.com

[David C. Rankin]

Guys,

Probably old news to most, but I was very pleased to see the good press Arch 
got from distrowatch.com this week. See:

The article reads:

With Arch Linux having become such a popular distro, often praised for its 
rolling-release model of installing once and keeping it updated forever, we 
thought it would be a good time to take another look at Archiso-live. 
Archiso-live is an Arch Linux live CD that boots into an Xfce desktop and has 
a graphical system installer. In the earlier releases the installer did not 
work correctly, but the more recent ones come with a much improved version. We 
installed in on a test machine and can confirm that it was able to transfer 
the entire live CD onto a hard disk partition with no problems. Of course, if 
you install Arch Linux this way, you'll be "cheating", since easy, 
click-and-point installation isn't part of the "Arch way" of doing things. 
Nevertheless, as a method of testing this exciting distro, the "Archiso-live 
way" is a great time-saver. The latest version at the time of writing is 
20091208 and it can be downloaded from here: archiso-live-2009-12-08.iso 
(685MB, MD5).

Good job guys. Another testament to wise decision making, good distro 
management, and smart devs ;-)
