Peppermint Two Plans Publicized
Shane Remington, co-founder of the Peppermint operating system (OS), announced plans to merge the previous two Peppermint OSes into one OS to be released as Peppermint Two.
According to Remington, a merge of Peppermint OS One and Ice will be integrated to create the Peppermint Two distribution, which is scheduled to be released in the summer of 2011.
As the Peppermint development team enters the final stages of the release process, the search for talented artists to create the finishing touches kicks off. Remington announced the Peppermint Wallpaper Challenge today. The Peppermint team is looking for an unbranded piece of art to use as the default wallpaper for Peppermint Two, and the winner of the challenge will receive US$ 200.00 plus a Peppermint Swag Pack.
More information on the Peppermint Wallpaper Challenge can found on the Peppermint OS website.
