</I>><i> I took a quick look at Thomas' page and it is quite impressive. No
</I>><i> doubt it could be improved/elaborated somewhat, but translated in its
</I>><i> present form (with references to Mandriva replaced by Mageia, of course)
</I>><i> would make an excellent contribution for the alpha release.
</I>><i> (Since the alpha is basically a test, it doesn't have to be perfect.)
</I>><i> (A plus is we will already have a version in french as well.)
</I>
I just created the page : <A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=contribute">http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=contribute</A>
Still hoping for a courageous volunteer to do the work for me :)
