No it doesn't.

  • Why does it need a Testimonials section that obviously looks like it was made up by someone at EliveCD?
  • The Subscribe page screams teenage developer with whatever that GIF is.
  • The Bug Reports Page / Roadmap ( Pick one or the other... Don't confuse your users)
  • Why is there only a 32bit option for the stable release?
  • Why are they pushing a Beta release by placing a outdated drivers and software warning on the Stable Release? If it's a big issue, build newer packages for your repo...
  • Why are they penalizing users for not donating, by placing a 1 to 2 hour wait timer? I am not going to donate to a project I know nothing about, and I am sure not just giving out my email to a random person and waiting a hour to see what happens.
  • The Beta has a option to get a free download with review... This shouldn't even be a option.

 

The whole project screams Commercial Product that needs severe help, even though it's open-source. Or is it fully open-source? Personally I am not going to find out.
