IIAB/XSCE 6.2 code is here, which represents a very major step forward since v6.1:

Background: We began working around a regular 6-month release cycle starting with XSCE 6.0 (released March 27, 2016) leading up to XSCE 6.1 (released September 22, 2016). We just missed the 6-month target this time, but that was a result of such a major refactoring, bringing us forward from CentOS exclusivity, embracing Raspbian for RPi, while adding the similar Debian for larger PC's.

Do join our weekly "Thursday" calls to help push forward what's coming next!
