• In December 2015, alongside Cinnamon, XFCE, Gnome and Budgie were added. In addition a BareBones edition. And a few days later Plasma, Mate, and LXQt get their first ISOs
• SUSE Studio Express
• Budgie put on ice for a while.
• Pantheon is added. AND the Budgie ROLLING and NEXT editions make a return.
• A vote for which default filesystem was held with btrfs winning. The same vote, but for the STATIC edition was held.
• Static will have a sunset in the future due to the change in LEAP
• Since that has happened yet GeckoLinux released after 15.4
