Hi Dru,
I am so glad yo hear from you!
We are indeed still working on ToriOS and improving things, as Nio 
mentioned the best current version we have is based on Debian.  We are 
working on the last few tweaks before having a stable enough ISO for 
general use, and should have one ready by the end of this week.

We have been much too busy heavily testing and developing our programs 
recently to use the website much and the person who takes care of 
posting on the website has been moving recently and has not had any time 
to update it.

The programmers and testers have been extremely busy, but we do not have 
much of a social front end yet since we are working on getting the last 
few kinks out before we release it into the wild!

I hope you have a splendid week as well!
