    ABOUT ~OKEANOS-GLOBAL NETWORKS

    Hello ~okeanos-global users,

    Many of you have already noticed that the beta version of ~okeanos-global manages your IPs in a new way. Our previous blog post explains what are the new features. We will provide some excerpts of this blog post below:

    NEW OPENSUSE IMAGE!

    New openSUSE Image!
    Hello everybody,

    As you may have noticed, a new Image has appeared under System Images. And yes, it is openSUSE! Many of our users had asked if we could provide an official openSUSE image, so there you have it!

    ~okeanos-global now supports openSUSE all the way, which means there are also official packages of the kamaki command-line client and the snf-image-creator tool for the ~okeanos-global advanced users.

    So, go ahead. Take them for a spin and see how it goes.

    Enjoy,
    the ~okeanos-global team
