===About SME Server===
 +
 +
 +
SME Server is the leading Linux distribution for small and medium
 +
enterprises. SME Server is brought to you by SME Server, Inc.
 +
( http://www.smeserver.org/ ), a non-profit corporation that exists to
 +
provide marketing and legal support for SME Server.
 +
 +
SME Server is freely available under the GNU General Public License
 +
and is only possible through the efforts of the SME Server community.
 +
However, the availability and quality of SME Server is dependent on
 +
meeting our expenses, such as hosting costs, server hardware, etc.
 +
 +
As such, we ask for a small donation to offset costs and fund further
 +
development.
 +
 +
Please visit [[Donate]] to donate.
 +
 +
===Thanks===
 +
------
 +
The development team would like to thank all of those involved in
 +
this release. However, this distribution cannot continue with the
 +
current level of support. More people are required to help with
 +
bug triage and verification testing.
 +
 +
 +
This release contains many new features, all released updates for
 +
SME Server 7.2 and fixes for many reported problems. Upgrades
