Mandriva, Mandrake, Lycoris The first beta release of the upcoming Mandriva Linux 2007.1 is now available for download and testing: "Mandriva Linux 2007 Spring Beta1. Main changes: GNOME 2.17; KDE 3.5.6; Firefox 2.0; new suspend and hibernate infrastructure (with bootsplash support); new DNS servers framework (using resolvconf to handle DNS servers from multiple interfaces, and sort them by interface priority); documentation is included on live systems." Update: AdamW, OSNews reader and Mandriva employee, just emailed me that the .iso images of the Mandriva One live version are not yet the official beta version; the version currently on their servers is an earlier version with certain issues. The conventional installation .iso's are fine, though. The correct Mandriva One 2007.1 Beta 1 .iso's will be released early next week.

should note the new versions of the bits everyone cares about these days...

compiz 0.36
beryl 0.2.0 beta 2 (rc1 got in just too late to make this beta, but you can get it from cooker)

there's KDE 4 stuff in contrib, but obviously not usable, just for poking. also metisse in contrib.
