+<PRE>Le dimanche 22 mai 2011 &#224; 11:02 +0200, Patricia Fraser a &#233;crit :
+&gt;<i> Hi Devs, marcomm team here!
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I know everyone's busy, but I hope some of you can help with a few
+</I>&gt;<i> words for the release announcements.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I need to get responses to this as soon as possible, deadline
+</I>&gt;<i> Wednesday this week (25/05) because the completed pages have to go to
+</I>&gt;<i> i18n before release day.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> For the focus pages on the websites, can you please add a few words
+</I>&gt;<i> here:
+</I>
+Could you explain what you mean exactly ? ( ie, adding to wiki, to a
+real web page in svn, answer here with the text ? )
+
+&gt;<i> - Developers' page:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> what do they have useful for them in Mageia 1; what benefits are
+</I>&gt;<i> there for a developer if they choose Mageia
+</I>
+This should be benefit vs windows, vs os x, vs another linux-based
+systems ?
+( cause I think that for the moment, we are not really different than
+others linux based system, and more specifically, we are a little bit
+behind from systems who offer newer gcc, newer python, etc or more
+packages ( fedora, debian, etc ) ).
+
+&gt;<i> - Specs &amp; requirements page:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> what are the hardware specs and system requirements for a new user
+</I>&gt;<i> installing (or upgrading) to Mageia 1?
+</I>
+Usually, any computer that was sold since 7/8 years should be enough,
+depending on what you want. We can tell roughly how much space it would
+take on a disk, we could tell how much memory will be used by a default
+installation, but since that can be tweaked to be lower, we should try
+to reflect that.
+
+I think we do have a limit of requiring 512 or 256 mo for installer, and
+that a regular installation would be 3 g ?
+( it can be tweaked down to something like 200 mo of disk space, iirc ).
+
+We are targeting for the moment regular desktop and laptop running x86
+compatible processor, 32 and 64 bits ( intel, amd, via, etc ).
+
+&gt;<i> - Thanks page:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> please nominate people on your team who should be mentioned on this
+</I>&gt;<i> page!
+</I>
+I usually find it to be quite risky. Not that I do not want to thanks
+people for their work, but that's either a huge job ( ie, for each
+people write something customized, with complexity increasing with each
+release ), or a script ( ie, take svn log + some script ) that would
+remove the human nature of the thanks.
+
+Maybe I am just &quot;special&quot; when it come to some form of rewards, so could
+maybe other packagers give their opinion ( ie, would a script be
+enough ? )
