 Hello all,

I begin by apologizing for my bad English...

Regarding the release cycle versions :
1) We must first thinking of the developpers, and human and financial
opportunities will define these cycles.
2) Personally, I like the idea of a release every nine months, two for
development and the third stable and maintained for X months or years.

For the versions' name :
- "Les goûts et les couleurs ne se discutent pas" (in french in the
text...) : those of development can have any name that is easy to
manage, and the stable version should be salable. A good compromise can
be, for example :
=> Mageia 2011 Mandrake, Mageia 2013 Sorceress, Mageia 2015 Houdini, ...
(with the year and names or terms of magic).

And for the choice of desktop's environment and applications :
- The means (human and technical) will decide. Best would be to put
everything, but I think choices will be needed (at least for marketing
with a possibly distribution for "general public").
