i like Mageia Factory Alpha (if there is only one why should we use 1?). what
about proposing it to the next mageia founders meeting?

</I>><i>
</I>><i> So further than the name, it's the discourse accompanying the release
</I>><i> that will matter at least as much, if not more, as the released

</I>
sure, but remember that in marketing everything is important, also the name.
obviously we must keep attention to everything related to the release (so this
time overall warning advertise)
><i> So far, it looks like the regular updates, technical and
</I>><i> non-technical, on the blog, have been wonderfully received. So it's a
</I>><i> good sign to use this too.
</I>
can you tell how many visits receive daily the english blog (and also the
others if possible?)
