+<PRE>There has been a lengthy debate about users' wishes for the Mageia
+release cycle, but one important voice has been missing from this
+debate: the collective voice of the devs who will be responsible
+for producing the releases.
+
+Before we start having polls and surveys, it would be useful to
+hear from our devs. I'm hoping that they have already been
+communicating with one another in the background (IRC? private
+emails?) and working out what can actually be done.
+
+As this is supposed to be a community-based distro, why do I think
+that the devs' opinion is so important?
+
+(a) They are the ones with the experience, they know how many
+person-hours it will take to produce a releasable version of
+Mageia.
+(b) They are the ones who know how many hours they each have
+available to personally commit to Mageia - some may be able to work
+full-time on Mageia, others will have other work or family
+commitments, and even those who can work full-time on Mageia will
+occasionally need to sleep and eat!
+
+We have two targets:
+1) A cauldron version for experienced users to test, and
+2) A stable (as much as possible!) version for less experienced
+end-users.
+
+So, devs, please draw on your experience and your knowledge, and
+tell us what will actually be possible.
