Zenwalk developer Jean-Philippe Guillemin has informed users of the Slackware-based operating system that the final Release Candidate (RC) milestone of the upcoming Zenwalk 8.0 release is now available for public testing.

Zenwalk 8.0 Linux Release Candidate 2 promises to be the last one, as the developer informs the community and public testers that it should be at 99% the stable target. “This is most probably the final release candidate for the upcoming Zenwalk 8.0,” says Jean-Philippe Guillemin in the release announcement.
