&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Foresight is a [[GNOME]]-based distribution, and prides itself in tracking GNOME development closely. In fact, Foresight aims to showcase all the latest GNOME developments in a tightly integrated package. The distribution imported GNOME 2.14, 2.12, and 2.10 on the day each was released.  The latest version is 0.9.9,  including GNOME 2.16 as the favored [[desktop environment]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One feature that makes Foresight stand out is the [[Conary (package manager)|Conary]] software packaging system.
