Hello All,
Tonight am gonna install foresight linux - A GNOME based distro and the main part is this distro uses a package manager called Conary which is different from other package managers that Conary will update only needed files in a package,thus it saves you a lot of bandwidth.they call packages as troves .Another thing is foresight linux team is focusing on GNOME and gtk apps only,thus building a firm gtk only distro.infact foresight linux releases are in sync to the release dates of GNOME.
