Mageia 6.1 is out!

“This release brings all of the updates and development that has gone into Mageia 6 together into fresh installation media, giving users a kernel that supports hardware released after Mageia 6. The new installations will benefit from the countless updates that current fully updated Mageia systems will have, allowing new installations to avoid the need for a large update post install. So if you are currently running an up to date Mageia 6 system, there is no need to reinstall Mageia 6.1 as you will already be running the same packages.
This release is available with only Live media, i.e. Live Plasma, Live GNOME and Live Xfce in 64bits, and Live Xfce in 32 bits. A network installation is also available, for users wanting more granular control over the installation.”

Not yet, but I imagine it's in their future (probably for post-v7), since they are putting a lot of work into ARM-based builds.

See https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:ARM_Port if you're interested in status/plans/etc. =)
Also, there's some support (without a proper installer) already on Mageia 6: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_6_Release_Notes#ARM_support

National Library of Finland

The National Library of Finland (in Helsinki) is unusually fancy for being in Finland. I had a meeting there today, and looked around a bit while I was there :-)

Auralquiz 1.0.0 released

The big 1.0!! ...is basically 0.9.0 with minor updates and some completed translations :p
It's also the last version to support Qt 4. Next releases will support Qt 5 only.

Auralquiz is a simple music quiz game.
Cheers! o/

I should add... Mageia has my three main public FS programs in their repos! That, by itself, is a reason why Mageia ROX, mwahaha ;)

Here too.
Annoyingly enough, proper winter starting after official midwinter is pretty common. Same with summer and midsummer, really.clacke@libranet.de ❌ at 2017-01-03T23:07:34Z

And in toronto we have rain. Should freeze tonight, though, and folks will be skating to work tomorrow.

Now we have proper winter temperatures as well, -18C, "feels like" temperature apparently -29C, although IMHO I didn't feel that cold :-)

I keep thinking he won't be elected and there's still so much time for him to fall behind in the races. And yet here we are, just over 24 hours left and he could STILL win. Fml. It's honestly so scary. There just isn't another word for it. He's grossly unfit and downright dangerous. :/

I seriously doubt this is an extreme of the spectrum of weirdness for Mr. Trump. We've not nearly found that yet.

Jan, I didn't vote for Mr. Trump or Mrs. Clinton. I'm not going to stay up late to watch results tomorrow. Monster movies are far, far more appropriate.

You're young. 4 years is a lot shorter time than you might think. Presidents come and Presidents go but the bureaucracy is eternal.

Seeking Collaborators for We Distribute
When I started @We Distribute , I did so in the hopes of covering all of the exciting development going on in the federated / distributed communication space. I somewhat envisioned the channel to serve as a topical analogue to the likes of OMG! Ubuntu or WebUpd8.
Coverage has always been somewhat spotty, due to my own personal time constraints, as well as the fact that I am sometimes behind on covering announcements from various projects. While I hope to once again get back in the saddle soon, I'd like to take the opportunity to reach out to my contacts within the space.
In #Hubzilla, it is possible for multiple people to administrate a channel. This includes collaboration on the integrated wiki (found here, in its sparse form) as well as post creation and scheduling. From there, We Distribute federates to Diaspora and Friendica, and cross-posts to Pump.io, Libertree, and GNU Social.
In short, I am looking for volunteers who would like to write updates for their projects of interest (#Diaspora, #Friendica, #Hubzilla, #Pump, #Libertree, or anything else), and help coordinate on putting together regular updates for the rest of the federated web to read. We Distribute is something of a meta-syndication, in the fact that it is leveraging the federated web to report on the state of the federated web.
