Yep. I suggested on latest council meeting to maybe release updated
isos in november/december but we haven't decided if we will do so yet.
This is because of the resources it takes to create and QA the isos,
and we are already working on creating alpha isos for Mageia 2 too,
so we would pretty much kill current QA...
So people, if you really want things like this, then _start_ helping!
Remember, this is a community distro, and if no-one steps up to do
the work, it wont happend.
