Debian 8.0 Jessie 正式版本將在2015年發布，還需漫長的時間等待！

Behavorial 改進
Xfce is the default desktop environment for the time being. Quoting tasksel's changelog：
this will be re-evaluated in August 2014, and may change again before Jessie is released
.It's still possible to select an alternative desktop to install at the boot prompt; installation images are available for the various major desktop environments as usual.

The ia64 architecture has been removed from the archive, and is no longer supported.
The s390 architecture has been replaced with the s390x architecture.
It wasn't possible to build the installer for sparc (#731806), so no installation images are available for this architecture. Its future as an official port is being evaluated by the release team.

The FreeBSD kernel has been updated from 9.0 to 9.2.
