= New Technology =
Lots of new technology is going into Amahi 7:
* Using [http://www.ruby-lang.org/ Ruby] 2.0, which is substantially faster than the previous version of Ruby we used in Amahi 6
* Using the latest a very stable yet recent [http://rubyonrails.org/ Ruby on Rails] (probably 3.2.13 or later14)
* We are using the [http://slim-lang.com/ Slim] template engine for the platform, which makes it easier to manage new code
* Based on [[Fedora 19]], because ruby 2.0, passenger and RoR 3.x are in by default in it
* New plugin system where simple plugins can be easily generated and developed for the Amahi setup area. See the [https://github.com/amahi/platform/blob/master/doc/plugins.md docs about plugins] for details on how to develop one of your own
<b>NOTE:</b> We're not "abandoning" Ubuntu or "going back" to Fedora. We will attempt to support '''both''' in alternate releases. However, Fedora is the first one to bring Ruby 1.9 and RoR 3.x out of the box, so far.

= Hopeful features Missing Features =We will work on these for the next major release:* New disk wizardas a plugin.* Manual creation of web apps as a plugin.* Wake on LAN.
= How to Help Release Notes =There are several ways to help:* If you are a contributor, make sure you get a machine running with Amahi 7 and get your apps to run on it* If you want to test View the install, get a VM and an ISO file of the base OS and let's test! This is probably the best way to help without deep technical knowledge.* If you want to help with the platform, get in the Amahi [[Mailing listAmahi_7_release_notes|Release Notes]] for Amahi 7 versions detailing of bug fixes and get some patches going. Ruby and RoR can help here.* Testing and porting themes will also help* Want to develop a new theme? Check the [[How to Create a new Theme]] page* Stop by and hang out on our IRC Channel #Amahi on irc.freenodeenhancememts.net-->
