So I ditched Mandriva and tried Kubuntu, but I'm not liking it, so here I am to try Mageia.
However, when I go to the downloads page, I am unable to find any sort of release date anywhere, so I have no idea how recent or old of a release I would be downloading.
After digging through a few pages with web search, looks like an announcement went out June 1st, 2011. Perhaps this bit of information would be at home on the iso download page?
