</I>><i> =======================================================================
</I>><i>
</I>><i> The past months, Mageia has been hard at work getting Alpha and Beta
</I>><i> releases out for our upcoming release Mageia 2. With Beta 2 out of the
</I>><i> door, and the release candidate on the way, it is time to reflect for a
</I>><i> moment on our current situation.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> A lot of hard work has been done by a lot of people. Developers, QA &
</I>><i> and triaging teams, and not in the least beta testers have worked hard
</I>><i> to improve our distribution to the best of our abilities and to ensure
</I>><i> that Mageia 2 will become a release for everyone to enjoy.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> During the testing, a number of bugs have been found which have been
</I>><i> marked as release blockers. While we are hard at work on resolving them,
</I>><i> there still is a lot to be done, and we can’t release while any release
</I>><i> blocking bugs are still outstanding.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> To this end, we’d like to invite everyone to participate in Mageia’s
</I>><i> first bug squashing party!
</I>><i>
</I>><i> The bug squash party will take place this weekend from friday 4 PM CET,
</I>><i> to monday 10 PM CEST in #mageia-bugsquad on the Freenode IRC network.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> We invite you to join in during this weekend to help us fix as many bugs
</I>><i> as we can! Everyone can help! If you are a packager, we encourage you to
</I>><i> get outside of your comfortzone and also have a look for example at
</I>><i> installer bugs, wifi bugs, systemd issues, and so on! As end user you
</I>><i> can help as well, we are still looking at increasing testing coverage to
</I>><i> see if we catch all major issues before going gold with our release.
</I>><i> Some bugs only manifest themselves on certain hardware profiles… if your
</I>><i> computer is affected by one of these bugs, we especially appreciate your
</I>><i> availability to help with testing to see if we can squeeze those nasty
</I>><i> bugs!
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Over the weekend, we will have a special page on our wiki where we will
</I>><i> track the status of all issues we’re working on, as well as a daily
</I>><i> update of our progress and work outstanding on the mailinglists -discuss
</I>><i> and -dev.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> We hope to see you on IRC in #mageia-bugsquad this weekend to help us
</I>><i> make Mageia even better and make Mageia 2 a rock solid release!
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Mageia Triage Team
</I>Have made an announcement in the Mageia-forum:
