+<PRE>Dear fellow packagers,
+
+In a few minutes, I will upload a new rpmlint-mageia-policy package that
+implements the new RPM group policy. Normally, packages that do not
+follow the new RPM groups will be rejected from the build system.
+I advise you to run rpmlint on your RPMs, SRPMs or spec files before
+submtting.
+
+The new RPM policy can be consulted at:
+<A HREF="https://wiki.mageia.org/en/RPM_groups_policy">https://wiki.mageia.org/en/RPM_groups_policy</A>
+
+In a nutshell, the changes are:
+- Remove Books/* -&gt; everything in Documentation
+- Add several Development/* to reduce Development/Other
+- Add Games/Shooter to reduce Games/Arcade and Games/Other
+- Split Office into Office/Dictionary, Office/Finance, ...
+- Split Sound into Sound/Editors and Convertors, Sound/Midi, ...
+- Split Video into Video/Editors and Convertors, Video/Players, ...
+- Split Graphics into Graphics/3D, Graphics/Editors, ...
+- Split Communications into Communications/Bluetooth,
+Communications/Fax, ...
+
+I will start collecting the list of packages that need to change group
+soon. I will write this list about what changes are urgent (current
+bugs) and what changes are necessary with respect to the new policy.
+
+So, all of us should feel free to start adapting our packages to the new
+policy :-).
+
+Cheers,
+--
+Malo
+</PRE>
