Click to enlarge
BackTrack 5 – codenamed “Revolution” – is currently under development, and the team is working on updating both system and tools. At the moment it’s running a 2.6.38-rc5 kernel, improved wireless drivers, and a new KDE 4 theme is being put together.
An initial release won’t be available for at least a couple months. If you have any requests or recommendations, now’s the time to make them on the BackTrack forums.
Here are a few teaser screenshots of BT5.

The Importance of Freedom
After re-watching V for Vendetta which, on a side-note, is an excellent movie, I was struck by how topical the story was with regards to events of the past few months, from Wikileaks’ Cablegate to the ongoing Egyptian Revolution. This inspired me to throw together the image above.
Although the message is probably painfully clear to the Egyptian people, it is important that we, in the so-called ‘developed’ world, not forget that the unchallenged erosion of civil liberties, and other freedoms that we take for granted, could rapidly make this message ring true for us as well.
