During 2015, OpenMandriva released an alpha version of OpenMandriva Lx 2015. As 
the operating system was developed all 2015 year, in 2016, the version was 
released as OpenMandriva Lx 3.0 Beta.[27] This new release came with 
significant changes to the core system - among other things, it was the first 
desktop Linux distribution that was built completely with the Clang compiler 
instead of GCC.[28]
