Tux Paint 0.9.21 will be available soon.  A few beta builds have been created, which are now available for people who'd like to test things out and make sure everything's more-or-less working:

RedHat (6.2, 7.3, 8.0 and 9.0), Fedora CORE (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6)
and Fedora (7, 8, 9 and 10) Linux packages (for i386):

Tux Paint Day: Tell Someone You Know about Tux Paint

From Bill Kendrick, Author of Tux Paint, via Schoolforge-discuss
 
Tomorrow, Tue. June 16th, marks the 7th anniversary of the first
release of Tux Paint.  (Coding began only two days earlier, on June 14, 2002.
"Release early, release often." :^) )

I decided to declare it "Tux Paint Day," created an event on Facebook
and 'invited' all my friends, sent an email out to the ~16,000 people

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Some might say that bringing openness to education is like bringing coals to Newcastle.  Most would have some reservations about agreeing.

Meeting at KIS

Yesterday, I went with to to KIS International School in Bangkok where the BossEd Conference will be held with Mick Purcell and Chandra-Mohan to meet with Ms. Sally Holloway, Head of KIS, and Dr. Piyarat Khantap, KIS ICT Coordinator.

Both showed knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject and were very supportive and encouraging.
