Cinnamon 5.0 released: 06/02/2021 After six months of development, the Cinnamon 5.0 user environment is released. The Linux Mint community is developing a fork of the GNOME Shell, the Nautilus file manager and the Mutter window manager, aimed at providing a classic GNOME 2-style environment with support for GNOME Shell interactions. Cinnamon is based on GNOME components, but those components are shipped as a periodically synced fork with no external dependencies on GNOME. The change of the version number to 5.0 is not associated with any particularly important changes, but only continues the tradition of using even decimal digits for numbering stable versions (4.6, 4.8, 5.0, etc.). The new Cinnamon release will be offered with Linux Mint 20.2, which is slated for a mid-June release. https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/releases/tag/5.0.0

OpenSUSE Leap 15.3 Released: 06/02/2021 After almost a year of development, openSUSE Leap 15.3 has been released.

A key feature of openSUSE Leap 15.3 is the use of the same set of binary packages with SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP 3, instead of the rebuilding of SUSE Linux Enterprise src packages that was the norm in previous releases. It is assumed that using the same binary packages in SUSE and openSUSE will simplify migration from one distribution to another, save resources on building packages, distributing updates and testing, unify differences in spec files and allow you to move away from diagnosing different package assemblies when parsing messages about errors. https://www.opensuse.org/

Debian's Cinnamon maintainer switches to KDE: 06/16/2021 Norbert Preining announced the withdrawal of its authority to create packages with new versions of Cinnamon Desktop for Debian due to the fact that he stopped using Cinnamon on his system and switched to KDE. Since Norbert no longer uses Cinnamon all the time, he cannot provide quality testing of packages under real-world conditions. At one time, Norbert switched from GNOME3 to Cinnamon due to usability issues for advanced users in GNOME3. For a while, Norbert was happy with the combination of the conservative Cinnamon interface with modern GNOME technologies, but experiments with KDE showed that this environment better suited his needs. KDE Plasma is characterized by Norbert as a lighter, faster, more responsive and customizable environment. He has already started building fresh KDE builds for Debian, prepared in the OBS service, and intends to soon upload packages from KDE Plasma 5.22 to the Debian Unstable branch. Norbert has expressed his willingness to continue maintaining existing Cinnamon 4.x packages for Debian 11 “Bullseye” on a leftover basis, but does not intend to package Cinnamon 5 or do any major Cinnamon related work. To continue the development of Cinnamon packages for Debian, new maintainers have already been found - Joshua Peisach, the author of the Ubuntu Cinnamon Remix and Fabio Fantoni, who is involved in the development of Cinnamon, who, together will provide quality support for Cinnamon packages for Debian. https://www.preining.info/blog/2021/06/future-of-cinnamon-in-debian/

Glibc Developers Consider stopping Code Transfer To Free Software Foundation: 16.06.2021 Key developers of the GNU C Library (glibc) system have put up a proposal to end the mandatory transfer of property rights of the code to the Open Source Foundation. By analogy with the changes in the GCC project, Glibc proposes to make the signing of the CLA agreement with the Free Software Foundation optional and provide developers with the opportunity to confirm the right to transfer the code to the project using the Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) mechanism. According to the DCO, author tracking is done by attaching a “Signed-off-by: developer's name and email” line to each change. By attaching this signature to the patch, the developer confirms his authorship over the transferred code and agrees to its distribution as part of the project or as part of the code under a free license. Unlike the actions of the GCC project, the decision was not released by the governing council from above, but was first put up for discussion with all representatives of the community. https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2021-June/127581.html

NetworkManager 1.32.0 released: 06/17/2021 A stable release of the interface is available to simplify the configuration of network parameters - NetworkManager 1.32.0 . Plugins to support VPN, OpenConnect, PPTP, OpenVPN and OpenSWAN are evolving via their own development cycles. https://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2021-June/msg00044.html

Cloudflare publishes WARP for Linux: 06/17/2021 Cloudflare today announced a Linux variant of its WARP application that combines a DNS resolver using DNS 1.1.1.1, a VPN, and a proxy in a single application to redirect traffic through the Cloudflare content delivery network infrastructure. To encrypt traffic in VPN, the WireGuard protocol is used in the BoringTun implementation , written in the Rust language and working entirely in user space. A distinctive feature of WARP is its tight integration with the content delivery network. Cloudflare provides a content delivery network for 25 million Internet resources and serves traffic for 17% of the 1000 largest sites. If a resource is served on Cloudflare, accessing it through WARP will result in faster content transfer than accessing it through the provider's network. In addition to VPN, there are several operating modes that allow one to encrypt only DNS requests (enable DNS-over-HTTPS) or run WARP in proxy mode, which can be accessed via HTTPS or SOCKS5, for example. You can also optionally activate filters to block access to resources that have detected malicious activity or adult content. Linux WARP packages are prepared for Ubuntu (16.04, 20.04), Debian (9, 10, 11), Red Hat Enterprise Linux (7, 8) and CentOS. In the future, they promise to expand the number of supported distributions. The program is designed as a console utility warp-cli. To use the VPN using the Cloudflare network, in the simplest case, it is enough to authenticate in the network with the “warp-cli register” command and the “warp-cli connect” command to create a tunnel for transmitting traffic from your system. https://blog.cloudflare.com/announcing-warp-for-linux-and-proxy-mode/

Rust 1.53 released: 06/18/2021 Rust 1.53, founded by the Mozilla project, but now being developed under the auspices of the independent non-profit organization Rust Foundation, is out. The language focuses on safe memory management, provides automatic memory management, and provides the means to achieve high parallelism of job execution, while dispensing with the use of a garbage collector and runtime (runtime is reduced to basic initialization and maintenance of the standard library). Automatic memory management in Rust relieves the developer from mistakes when manipulating pointers and protects against problems arising from low-level memory handling, such as accessing a memory area after it is freed, dereferencing null pointers, overrunning buffer boundaries, etc. The Cargo package manager is being developed to distribute libraries, provide builds, and manage project dependencies . The crates.io repository is supported for hosting the libraries. https://blog.rust-lang.org/2021/06/17/Rust-1.53.0.html
