Hello! 

Here are a few news from us. Take what you want ;)

- our Mandrake 5.3 image iso has encountered a great success: over
20,000 images (last count is: nearly 25,000) of 550 Mb have been
download in one month from our many FTP mirrors! Note that some people
have downloaded the image with their modem and of course it took
several days...

- Linux-Mandrake is second best sell (in quantity), just after Red Hat
in January and February at LinuxMall.

- After some big delays, the Mandrake PowerPack 5.3
(http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/fpowerpack.html) are finally
available in the USA (http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/america.html).
We apologize for the delay.

- we have put a new RPM of Kernel2.2.2 for tests. It is available for
both Mandrake 5.2/5.3 and RedHat 5.2. It will be available on march,
10 1999 from http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.html (after the
mirroring process this night).
We would be very happy that many people report problems with this
kernel to bugs@linux-mandrake.com. However, it has been tested and
works for us! :)
We wish to open the Mandrake development to the Linux community.
Instructions for clean kernel2.2 upgrade are available on:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/kernel2.2/

Greets,

	Gael.
