Hi ,

I exchanged a few mails with Sonny Gaviola, and here are the details:

- The Gentoo Linux 2007.1 edition would be for the French version of the Linux 
Identity Magazine, so all articles would obviously be in French.

- They would like to coordinate the publication of their Gentoo Linux 2007.1 
magazine edition with the release of Gentoo 2007.1. Ideally, the articles 
would need to be ready three weeks before our release. However, it would also 
be acceptable for the magazine to be published a few weeks after our release.

- The contents would need to be original and 2007.1 oriented.

I am interested in helping out (writing, translating, reviewing articles), and 
would appreciate if the PR-team was involved. Also, those interested in 
contributing would need to be informed of the planned release date to set up 
deadlines for articles. Since December is around the corner, I also wonder if 
there will be a 2007.1 at all. Without any release plan information 
available, I am reluctant to commit myself further.

Kind regards,

Olivier
