+ Hi!<br>
+ <br>
+ Now &amp; then I tend to loose my mind &amp; install Ubuntu on one
+ of my computers &amp; the last time I did it I heard about PPA's. I
+ added a PPA &amp; noticed how fun it was to test the code that it
+ offers.<br>
+ <br>
+ This is the explanation of what PPA is &amp; does according to the
+ Ubuntu-page:<br>
+ <br>
+ <b>"Personal Package Archives (PPA) allow you to upload Ubuntu
+ source packages to be built and published as an apt repository by
+ Launchpad."</b><br>
+ <br>
+ My idea would be something similar.<br>
+ <br>
+ It starts with the user that gets annoyed how some Mageia-packages
+ that are meant to be stable that they aren't.<br>
+ Instead of having to do the job themselves they can just add a
+ special media called user-contrib that contains packages built from
+ git-source to be tested in Cauldron &amp; then released as
+ Backport-version when confirmed stable enough to see if the issue
+ they had on the officially stable package is gone.<br>
+ <br>
+ I know that it would take many people to build thoose, but I'm
+ willing to download git-code &amp; compile &amp; build for Mageia.<br>
+ <br>
+ I've already managed to compile &amp; build the latest official
+ version of Transmission without using the official Mageia patches
+ &amp; I've got NO problem at all using the package.<br>
+ <br>
+ Test theese packages &amp; say what you think:<br>
