Version 1.0.0 was released last week. Distrowatch has an entry for it this week. It appears to be a light weight (.iso file is 587 MB), highly adaptable OS using a custom desktop called Esther. Epiphany is the default web browser. The selection of installable packages seems limited to someone used to the Mint/Ubuntu repositories, but it seems to include most of the popular apps.

Looks to be a promising OS and one of the first in a while not to be based on Debian... or anything at all :p

iv got an amd processor :( so what is it based on then? wouldnt it make it incompatible with a lot of programs for ubunut? looks nice though.......

It's not based on anything, unlike most new distros nowadays.

intel only?

Nope, it supports ARM, PowerPC, MIPS, and Intel compatible X86. More specifically i686, which is PIII and up as well as AMD Athlon and up.
