Mageia 3 RC 發布

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。

Anne Nicolas has announced that the only release candidate and the final development build for Mageia 3 is now ready for testing: " We are now two weeks from the end of the trip (at least we hope we will have no delay). Mageia 3 release candidate is now available for the very final tests. We need your feedback more than ever. The Mageia team is working hard to fix the last annoying bugs - what we call release-critical bugs. How do we qualify a release-critical one? All the bugs that cannot be fixed through updates, mainly in the installer, the kernel and some of the main drivers. As with the beta 4, live ISO images are still in progress and should be released in the coming days." Mageia 3 RC ships with the latest Linux kernel, version 3.8.8, and includes RPM 4.11, systemd 195, KDE 4.10.2, GNOME 3.6.3 and LibreOffice 4.0.2. See the brief release announcement and the detailed release notes for more information. Download the installation DVD image from here: Mageia-3-RC-x86_64-DVD.iso (3,865MB, MD5). The final release of Mageia 3 is scheduled for 3 May 2013.
