+> - provide live version(s)
+> - decrease isos number. QA is just a hell on the set we had for Mageia 2
+> - provide localization as large as possible
+> - provide isos including major drivers including proprietary one to 
+> make it easier to install and configure
+>
+> Keep in mind that what you want is not necessarily what another one 
+> want. So let start proposals here and discussion. Please add all 
+> explanations to your proposal.

+> Let say we take one week on this so until 26/09 then we will make a

+My proposal:
+
+dual and DVDs - as they are today.
+32-bit LiveCD-s as they are today.
+Replace 64-bit LiveCDs with two LiveDVDs (KDE and GNOME versions) which 
+contain all languages.
+
+I think 32-bit LiveCDs are still needed as they will be used by those 
+users who don't have computer that can read DVDs and when the CD is in 
+english it will be really hard for them localize their system after 
+installing.
