To all Mageia people around the world, wherever you are, summer or winter, we hope 2013 is a great year for you – and we plan to make it a great year for Mageia!<\/p>\n

Looking back…<\/h3>\n

2012 was a pretty good year for Mageia. We had our second release and we’re well on the way to Mageia 3; we can confirm that Mageia is doing well,\u00a0 and we’re definitely a long term project.<\/p>\n

We had lots<\/a> of positive<\/a> reviews<\/a> (here’s another one<\/a>), and we made it to the top 10 of the Distrowatch lists – Mageia is now seen as one of the main distributions on Distrowatch<\/a> and ZDNet<\/a> and TuxRadar<\/a> – and we’ve had number 2 spot in Distrowatch page hit rankings<\/a> all year! We’re right up there with distros that have been around much longer. That’s due to everyone in the Mageia community – thanks to everyone for your great work!<\/p>\n

What’s happening now?<\/h3>\n

We’re in the middle of\u00a0 development releases for Mageia 3; check the wiki\u00a0 for updated release dates<\/a>. We’re almost at Versions Freeze, and Beta 2 is due on January 18th – time to prepare for some more testing! Feedback about Beta 1 has been really good, but we can always use more testing.<\/p>\n

And as we did for the last couple of years, we will have a stand at FOSDEM in Brussels<\/a>, on the 2nd and 3rd of February. If you’ll be in Brussels then, FOSDEM is a great conference – come and talk to us, pick up a Mageia t-shirt and meet the folks you only see online!<\/p>\n

Come join us!<\/h3>\n

How about making some new friends in the new year? Make 2013 your year for joining the community. Check out all the teams<\/a> and see which one suits you best: we’ll welcome you with open arms!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
