Although I use grep a lot (preferring grep|cut to awk, for example), but hadn't really noticed that it's still being developed :-)
I've always liked GNU grep for the -A and -B flags specifically (made even more poignant because I have to work with Solaris grep a lot), but there's a whole lot more in the world now …

At the end of June, security support for Debian 3.0 Woody will be terminated. http://www.debian.org/News/2006⁄20060601
Debian 3.1 Sarge has been out for a year, people should have upgraded by now!
But upgraded to what? How about Ubuntu? Version 6.06 LTS "Long Term Support" has just been released. http://www.ubuntu.com/news/606released
This version will be security supported on the server for the next five years, regardless of the number of releases that come out in the meantime. As Ubuntu have a 6-monthly release cycle at the moment, that looks like it could be up to 10 more versions coming out, with 6.06 still being security supported.
Ubuntu is available for i386, amd64, PowerPC and Sun UltraSPARC T1 platforms. The base OS comes with the GNOME desktop – the associated Kbuntu uses KDE, Xubuntu uses XFCE for a lightweight experience, and Edubuntu comes loaded with tools for “young human beings” and school environments.
