Yes - Vintage = old [Official] Puppy OS as used here by CatDude
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 4&start=15
[This thread has a lot of useful info about Puppy history/timeline etc though some links are already dead, but the links for the ISOs are good]
Note: I have seen pages which attribute use of 'Puppies' to ttuuxxx's firefox added puppy versions - there doesn't seem to be a written rule.....
NB: Readers, these are NOT all Derivatives!

How do we define Official?
I define it as anything Barry provides us. This would include all the Puppies, .sfs files, source code, .pet files which he puts on servers, such as ibiblio
Anything else, is I guess: user provided? member provided? what?

What i'm interested in adding is versions in active development or version in wide spread usage. People can add the history if they want.
I've added MacPup to
the Puppy Version List on the wiki
and made a
MacPup index page.

Do you think we should be asking people for issue date as month/year, also?
It might help sorting by date, at some later stage, and give a useful indicator of suitability to some hardware, if nothing else?
runtt21, coopsurv and Bruce - thanks

I thinks its useful info, but I didn't want to include too many columns
There is a page for release date info at:-
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppyTimeLine
Not many derivatives in there yet.
The description can include info if its suitable for particular hardware.
Also, each derivative can have a wiki page give full details.
A template for versios would be good, featuring a table with all 'vital statistics'

Darkcity,Sir , Thank you very much!!
One question , What do you consider "wide spread usage." ?
Posted: Tue 02 Aug 2011, 09:32
by darkcity
@runtt21
"widespread usage" is of course a very vague term. What I'm trying to get at is listing versions which hasn't been superseded by bugfix versions-
for example 5.10 is truly superseded by 5.11 as they are very similar and 5.11 has many bugfixs
does 5.25 supersede 5.11 though? or have features been altered too much?
---
The Puppy 2 page needs help!
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/Puppy2
Can anyone add a description of the differences between 2.14R 2.14X and 2.17?
superseded?

as to whether 511 is superceded by 520/525 my guideline is whether or not a cd update between versions break things.
this is the main thing to avoid between version numbers
even bugfix releases can behave badly

TEENpup / Legacy OS release info here >

Thanks for maintaining wiki page.
What is the difference between the forthcoming teenpup and current Legacy OS?
Posted: Thu 25 Aug 2011, 22:16
by john biles
Hello darkcity,
Legacy OS 2 built on Puppy 2.14 from early 2007
TEENpup 2011 Mini will be built on Puppy 4.21 from mid 2009. It was going to be called Legacy OS 4 Mini but time and desire not to rebrand all the apps means it will stick with the TEENpup name for this upcoming release.
(TEENpup 2011 Mini is an update of TEENpup 2010 Mini beta released in Feb 2010.)
Visit the link and have a read.

Awesome work darkcity. Huge job.
One thing I have always wished for is some kind of database/grid that lists available Live CDs plotted against hardware they run perfectly on.
eg: It'd be neat to look up say, "Puppy Cielo Wary 5" and see that a Toshiba TE2100 is listed as running happily on that live CD.
Very useful for people like me who are trying to get retired pensioners on the net via Puppy, and who want out-of-the-box solutions that run perfectly from a fresh boot on a machine that has dhcp router access to the net.
Nothing for the user to know/do/understand. Just boot from live CD and go.
I guess this would be most useful for laptops as they tend to have more standard configurations than other forms of PC.
I'm trying to build up my own list of laptop versus live CD but it'll be a long while before i can work out how to present it on a webpage.
Within your list it is really helpful if a developer can maybe suggest what machine they were originally targeting that particular release for.
Very hard to represent such three-dimensional information on a two-dimensional webpage. I need a 3-D computer
