Its done when the team thinks its +</I>><i> ready and not because its being demanded by end users. In Linux Mint this +</I>><i> does alot of good because of having to clean up after ubuntu so much. The +</I>><i> releases are much more stable and polished. The way clement lefabre likes +</I>><i> it. And everyone who uses it is usually satisfied with the end product. +</I>><i> +</I>Well this is theway it seems we are going to, some people proposing 9 months +release depending on release dates of main softwares. Anyway whatever the +choice, it's obvious that we will not release final one if this is not +stable enough. + +><i> As for being in the news more, we dont have to put out a release just to be +</I>><i> able blog about whats going on in the mageia community and remind everyone +</I>><i> why mageia is special. But this must be the case because theres rarely any +</I>><i> new news posted in mageia blog unless a release is coming out. Thats getting +</I>><i> about as lame as these messages in this mailing list telling people they +</I>><i> sent their message to the mailing list wrong. +</I>><i> What is this distro really about? One upping mandriva and following the +</I>><i> same mechanical routines they did to piss you guys off, or building a real +</I>><i> community distribution of gnu/linux that cares more about keeping in touch +</I>><i> with the community than they do about the way someone new sent a mailing +</I>><i> list message. Theres more to a linux community then mailing lists. +</I>><i> At first I was excited about using mageia, and being a part of the +</I>><i> community. Now im dissappointed because I see how you treat people that are +</I>><i> not on the team. Basically like their opinions +</I>><i> +</I>Not at all. everyone can subscribe mailing- lists. The point is Mageia is a +young project and we cannot afford for now at least to spread efforts on +forums and mailing-lists and blogs... People still sleep during the night. +It may not be perfect but it's a start. Our points is just to try to get all +opinions in a same place, that's all. + +><i> (that you ask for) dont matter, and you are only concerned with the proper +</I>><i> submission of mailing lists messages. Get someone on the blogs and start +</I>><i> talking to the rest of the community the way they deserve. I agree with the +</I>><i> gentleman leaving the mailing list. This isn't worth sticking around for. +</I>><i> Time to remember why you started mageia in the first place. +</I>><i> +</I>Of course we are opened to any of your proposals and ideas and contributions +to improve all this :) + +Cheers + + + +><i> On Jun 13, 2011 12:51 PM, "Ron" <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">corbintechboy at yahoo.com</A>> wrote: +</I>><i> > I will say my part and I'm gone... +</I>><i> > I don't understand why everyone is acting like a rolling release is going +</I>><i> to put so much strain on the project.
