General Information
- The wiki for development http://qa.mandriva.com/wiki is being efficiently reworked so that it will soon become http://wiki.mandriva.com/ ; for the moment being, see http://mdv.vmlinuz.ca/ (For those that are having difficulty connecting to the site, it's due to a bug in the 2.6.17 kernel which can be corrected by doing editing /etc/sysctl.conf and appending net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=0 to the file; execute sysctl -p to apply the changes instantly). A remaining issue is the internationalization (and keeping up-to-date translated articles)
- many libre games made their way or were updated thanks to blino's initiative. A DVD game based on 2007.0, as packages were backported from cooker, may appear in a magazine soon.
