The very first milestone of elementary OS, the operating system founded by Daniel Foré, has just been made available to internal developers for testing and feedback.
The milestone sees many changes from the very old pre-alpha build that had been available to developers previously. Some changes include a foundation of Ubuntu 10.10, many, many new apps developed for elementary, a much cleaner theme, new icons, and a new default wallpaper. Some of the default applications include: Midori, the web browser; Postler, the mail client; Dexter, the address book; Empathy, the instant messenger; Dictionary; AbiWord, the word processor; and Gnumeric, the spreadsheet tool.
