Thanks. Well, this is cool for QA, but difficult to summarize as such
for release notes by an outsider.

Release notes are in this shape at this time:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_2_alpha1#Major_new_features - and
this directly shapes the release announcement (to be managed by
Patricia). At this time, that means we have near to nothing to say...
although there are quite some changes.

Are we to push the ISOs online tomorrow, without a status of what's
new (packaging team?) and without a public plan for tests & technical
review (QA team?) and without a drafted roadmap for the big items to
work on for the next alpha? (and without an announcement)

Anne and me will manage the download links, for all the rest, insiders
summarized input is more than welcome for their own part.

Ahoy!
