Mageia 3 發布，Mandriva Linux 分支

Mageia是Mandriva Linux于2010年9月形成的分支，它由那份來自法國的頗受歡迎的Linux發行的前雇員及貢獻者們創建。與Mandriva這份商業實體所不同的是，Mageia計劃乃是一個社區項目及一個非盈利性組織，它的目標是開發一套自由的基于Linux的操作系統。

Trish Fraser has announced the release of Mageia 3, the third official release of the community distribution that was created by former developers and contributors of the once highly popular Mandriva Linux in late 2010: " All grown up and ready to go dancing - Mageia 3 is out. We still can't believe how much fun it is to make Mageia together, and we've been doing it for two and a half years. Major new features: updates to RPM (4.11) and urpmi, which has been given a good turnout and cleanup; Linux kernel 3.8; systemd 195; GRUB is the default boot loader; GRUB 2 is available; revamped package groupings for installation and rpmdrake; KDE 4.10.2, GNOME 3.6, Xfce 4.10; LibreOffice 4.0.3; Steam for Linux...."
