This is the best summary I could come up with:


Microsoft has published its first tagged preview of the upcoming Azure Linux 3.0 operating system.

Azure Linux – formerly what was known as CBL-Mariner as their in-house Linux distribution used for purposes from Azure to WSL to Windows IoT – is preparing for a big v3.0 update.

On Wednesday the Azure Linux 3.0.20240524-3.0 preview release was published.

No formal release notes have yet to be posted for the Azure Linux 3.0 changes in full.

Those wanting to try out the preview release of Microsoft Azure Linux 3.0 can find the pre-release on GitHub.

Azure Linux 3.0 preview releasing on the Phoronix 20th birthday is a nice present… Microsoft maintaining their own Linux distribution certainly wasn’t on my bingo card or wildest imagination twenty years ago.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
