Fedora Core 6 Re-Spin 20070111 Released

The Fedora Unity Project has released new LiveCDs and LiveDVDs of Fedora Core 6. This new release has many patches and is built with a new tool.

This release was built with the new tool called Pungi[2], developed by Jesse Keating, a leading community member and Fedora Release Engineer, with community input. This tool will be used in future official Fedora releases and for Fedora Unity Re-Spins. We have joined in this effort to bring a full featured tool to the Fedora community, enabling anyone to build Re-Spins and Live-Spins now and in the future.
