The Ubuntu CE team announced yesterday the availability of the Ubuntu Christian Edition 3.3. This release includes some new features and the usual updates and fixes:

"We are excited to announce the release of Ubuntu CE v3.3. This release comes just after Ubuntu CE’s 1st Birthday! We have had a great year and are looking forward to the continued development in the year to come.", says the Ubuntu CE team.

Highlights of this release include:

• WhatWouldJesusDownload Toolbar to Firefox which gives users access to many great utilities available at WhatWouldJesusDownload.com.
• The Ubuntu Christian Edition main menu icon has been enhanced, in order to give it a particular look.
• The Dansguardian GUI received some minor adjustments.
• IEs4Linux will now work with Ubuntu Christian Edition Parental Controls.
• Bible Fox theme was updated.
• Firefox was set to open new windows in tabs.

Ubuntu Christian Edition is an installable LiveCD based on the very popular Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (7.04). It is a free, open source operating system created for Christians. The main goal of this distribution is to bring the security and power of Ubuntu to Christians. It can be used for both server and desktop environments.

Ubuntu Christian Edition includes more than 16,000 pieces of software, but the core desktop installation fits on a single CD. Apart from the usual applications found in a regular Ubuntu distribution, this one contains GnomeSword, a top of the line Bible study program for Linux based on the Sword Project and several modules, installed with GnomeSword, including Bibles, Commentaries, and Dictionaries.

Ubuntu Christian Edition also includes fully integrated web content parental controls powered by Dansguardian, which is a graphical tool designed to adjust the parental control settings.

You can download the Ubuntu Christian Edition now from Softpedia.
