Oracle Enterprise Linux missing from the picture edit
Since last year there is another Linux distribution: Oracle Enterprise Linux, based on Red Hat. Now they started with Oracle Enterprise Linux 4, and have released for few week already Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.
MX Linux missing from this list. edit
MX Linux began in a discussion about future options among members of the MEPIS community in December 2013. Developers from antiX then joined them, bringing the ISO build system as well as the Live-USB/DVD technology. The name “MX” was chosen to combine the first letter of Mepis with the last of antiX, thus symbolizing their collaboration. In order to be listed on DistroWatch, MX Linux was presented as a version of antiX and released its first version in March of 2014. It received its own DistroWatch page as a separate distribution with the release of the first Public Beta of MX-16 on November 2, 2016. 72.188.27.127 (talk) 14:41, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

Distributions doing regression tests and continuous integration edit
A huge difference in the quality of the distribution comes from the presence of a continuous integration service, where applicable. For instance, many linux users have no idea that Debian CI checks each new package test suite against reverse dependencies test suites, which vastly improves the quality of the distribution.

Technical - The column of default fs edit
It's not about supported fs, just the dafault one. ~~~ mcg (talk) 20:48, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
