Hi to all

My Name is groni i will you Present today the new Version of Pisi Linux

What is Pisi Linux?

Pisi Linux is a fork of the (PiSi-based) Pardus operating system and its unique technologies.

When it became apparent early in 2012 that for political/financial reasons, Pardus was to be abandoned, a small group of Turkish volunteers came together to preserve the unique features of Pardus. The name of this project is Anka (Turkish for Phoenix). Initially the Anka-Team believed the fork could be named Pardus-Anka. Ultimately this was not possible – hence re-branding to Pisi Linux as a reference to Pardus and its package system PiSi (Pisi is Turkish for kitty).
