[Mageia-dev] The Chaudon will soon boil again

Hi there,
+
+We plan to reopen cauldron this Sunday. Here are some details coming 
+from boklm (sysadmin team) to handle this.
+
+If you installed Mageia Beta or RC releases for testing, and want to 
+stay with Mageia 2 stable release, it is time to check that you have 
+Mageia 2 and not Cauldron medias configured in urpmi before new packages 
+arrive in Cauldron.
+
+You can see if you are using cauldron medias using mcc or with the 
+following command :
+  $ urpmq --dump | grep cauldron
+
+If you have cauldron medias, you can remove all medias using mcc or 
+following command:
+  # urpmi.removemedia -a
+And add Mageia 2 medias :
+  # urpmi.addmedia --distrib --mirrorlist
+or if you want to specify a server :
+  # urpmi.addmedia --distrib ftp://some_mirror/mageia/distrib/2/x86_64/
+
+For packagers :
+Packages svn will be branched on Sunday. Until it is branched, you
+should avoid new commits on packages.
+
+You can continue commiting in soft repository. Don't forget to create
+a Mageia 2 branch for software that may need to have updates in Mageia 2.
+
+Cheers
