intéresser :</p>
+
+  <h4>Frugalware 1.5rc2 est sortie</h4>
+
+  <p>Le 1er août, le papa de Frugalware, VMiklos, a annoncé la sortie de la
+  dernière version de tests Frugalware 1.5 "Mores".
+  Il y a quelques changements significatifs depuis la dernière version, nous
+  avons donc besoin de votre aide.
+  Si vous avez du temps et de la bande passe, <strong>merci</strong> de nous
+  aider à tester la version 1.5rc2. Tout ce que vous avez à faire est de
+  l'installer comme vous le faites habituellement, ainsi que les paquets que
+  vous avez l'habitude d'utiliser. Ne le faites pas sur votre machine 
principale,
+   mais plutôt sur un autre PC ou dans une machine virtuelle. Si vous trouvez
+   quelque chose qui marchait dans la version 1.4 et qui, désormais, ne marche
+   plus, merci de rapporter le bogue
+  sur notre <a href="https://bugs.frugalware.org";>Bug Tracking System</a>.
+  </p>
+
+  <h4>Bon voyage, Carl</h4>
+
+  <p>Le contributeur Carl Andersen a annoncé, le 4 juillet 2011, sur la liste 
de
+   diffusion i18n, qu'il n'assurerait dorénavant plus les traductions 
danoises.
+   Ses autres centres d'intérêts et activités (entre autre le bateau), ont 
la
+   priorité. Pendant 4 ans, il a effectué un excellent travail et nous sommes
+   désolés de le voir partir. Vous retrouverez, un peu après, une interview 
de
+   Carl, dans laquelle il revient sur sa contribution à Frugalware.
+  Bonne chance et bon vent !</p>
+
+  <h4>Re-bienvenue jercel</h4>
+
+  <p>Juste quand Carl a annoncé son départ, Jercel annonçait, quant à lui,
+  qu'il revenait après une coupure de six mois. Il est l'auteur de superbes
+  contributions dans le passé, c'est donc super de le voir revenir. </p>
+
+  <h4>pacman-g2 is maintenant plus rapide</h4>
+
+  <p>VMiklos a récemment modifié la façon dont la base de données de 
pacman-g2
+  était stockée et manipulée. Jusqu'à présent, la base de données, 
contenue
+  dans un unique fichier, était téléchargée et décompressée dans plein de
+  petits fichiers. Quand une recherche était effectuée, la procédure était
+  longue car plein de fichiers étaient ouverts et fermés, à tour de rôle.
+  Ce changement a modifié ce comportement. Désormais, la base de données est
+  téléchargée et décompressée dans la mémoire au lieu d'être 
décompressée
+  sur le disque dur. Cela a pour résultat une meilleure performance.
+  si pacman-g2 était un produit commercial, nous pourrions surement dire :
+  "Formule nouvelle et améliorée ! Procurez-vous le immédiatement car vous 
le
+  ne savez pas, il rend vos vêtements plus propres et plus lumineux ! :P</p>
+
+  <h4>Merci de mettre vos tests de matériels sur le wiki</h4>
+
+  <p>Avant d'acheter du matériel, il est souvient utile de savoir si quelqu'un
+  a eu le matériel similaire et s'il a eu ou non des problèmes sous Linux.
+  Quelquefois, vous pouvez trouver l'information, des fois non. Pour que tout
+  le monde soit gagnant, <strong>merci</strong> d'ajouter au wiki quelques
+  informations sur le matériel que vous utilisez, en particulier les 
ordinateurs
+  portables, les imprimantes et les autres périphériques. L'article n'a pas 
à
+  être très long, mais il devrait inclure le nom du constructeur et le 
modèle
+  de la machine, afin qu'une brève description. Si vous avez modifié des 
fichiers
+  de configuration, ou utilisé des informations provenant de sites Internet,
+  merci de les fournir sur l'article. Si tout le monde dans la communauté 
faisait
+  cela, ça serait une source utile d'informations, et pas seulement pour les
+  utilisateurs de Frugalware, mais pour tous les utilisateurs de Linux.</p>

+  <h4>Ne soyez pas effrayé par les applications en mode console</h4>
+
+  <p>Although GUI applications often win fans for their 'bling', console
+  applications usually win fans for their functionality. They have several
+  advantages over equivalent GUI applications:</p>
+
+  <ul>
+         <li>they are often faster and require fewer system resources (memory
+         and CPU), making them especially good for older PCs and PCs/laptops
+         with less powerful CPUs;</li>
+
+         <li>text-only interfaces use less screen space compared to a GUI
+         interface and if you use a small font you can fit a lot onto a screen.
+         This is especially useful for netbooks;</li>
+
+         <li>they make a great combination with utilities such as <a
+         href= "http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/screen.html";>screen
+         </a> and <a href="http://www.tenshu.net/terminator/";>Terminator
+         </a>.</li>
+  </ul>
+
+  <p>Here are some console-based applications which you might find useful as
+  a replacement for a GUI application:</p>
+
+  <ul>
+         <li>tyrs - Identi.ca and Twitter client;</li>
+         <li>irssi - IRC client;</li>
+         <li>bashburn - Burn content to writeable CD/DVD media;</li>
+         <li>MOC - console audio player.</li>

height="85" alt=""><br>
+
+  <p>As I mentioned in the "Events etc" section, Carl Andersen will no longer
+  be contributing to Frugalware. Before he sailed away into the sunset I
+  asked him for a farewell interview, a chance to reflect on his work and
+  achievements. Thankfully he agreed and here is what he said...</p>
+
+  <dl>
+         <dt><strong>What motivated you to begin translating Frugalware
+         projects?</strong></dt>
+
+               <dd>Early on, I became interested in translating Frugalware
+               projects. Mainly because I knew that a lot of Danish consumers 
were
+               interested in Frugalware's projects. I felt it only natural that
+               these people deserved to be able to read the manuals in their 
own
+               language. I also knew that there were a lot of elderly people 
who
+               did not know a word of English. I soon discovered that it was 
also a
+               lot of fun, as well as very hard work, translating the projects.
+               However, I also felt that it was important to keep going. All 
this
+               kept me interested and urged me to keep bettering 
myself.</dd><br />
+
+         <dt><strong>Did you learn anything over the four years you provided
+         translations?</strong></dt>
+
+               <dd>Yes. I learned a lot of technical terms which came in handy 
in
+               future projects. I also learned that translation from one 
language
+               to another is very hard work and that it takes a person with 
great
+               dedication to keep at it even when things get tough. It made me
+               appreciate other people's hard work even more than I did 
before, as
+               well as gave me a whole new perspective on words and 
translation in
+               general. The translation process also did wonders for my 
vocabulary.
+               Over the course of four years I also came to appreciate the
+               Frugalware organisation more and more, not to mention its
+               developers, whom I have always thought did an excellent job in
+               developing Frugalware.</dd><br />
+
+         <dt><strong>Did you have any aim(s) when you started ? If you did, did
+         you achieve it/them?</strong></dt>
+
+               <dd>Firstly, when I started translating I wanted to make 
Frugalware
+               and its projects known to a larger audience within Denmark. I 
feel
+               that I have fulfilled this aim. I run a website which focuses on
+               Frugalware and in four years it has been visited by 90,000 
people
+               worldwide. So I am very pleased. Secondly, I especially wanted
+               elderly people to get acquainted with Frugalware and its 
projects. I
+               also feel that this aim has been achieved as I have gotten a 
lot of
+               positive responses to my work from all age groups.</dd><br />
+
+         <dt><strong>Are there any special moments you remember?</strong></dt>
+
+               <dd>There are always a lot of good and bad moments when you
+               embark on a grand adventure. However, I am glad to say that 
there
+               are a lot more good moments than bad. I especially remember my
+               moment of triumph when I first felt that all my hard work was
+               recognized and I also appreciate all the positive response and
+               heartfelt congratulations I get from people all over the world. 
I
+               really feel that I have been part of something 
important.</dd><br />
+
+         <dt><strong>Would you recommend translating to others who might be
+         interested?</strong></dt>
+
+               <dd>Definitely. I hope other people will take the translation of
+               Frugalware projects as seriously as I have. I feel it necessary 
to
+               keep the spirit of Frugalware alive and this is why the 
translation
+               process is such an important part. Without the translators there
+               would not be so many people who would be able to benefit from
+               Frugalware's projects. Of course more and more people nowadays 
are
+               able to understand English, but I still feel that many people 
are
+               happy that they are able to read about Frugalware in their own
+               language, especially the package program.</dd><br />
+
+         <dt><strong>Will you remain using Frugalware Linux?</strong></dt>
+
+               <dd>At the moment I am not using Frugalware Linux. I have
+               decided to try something new so at the moment I use Linux Mint. 
So
+               far I am very pleased with this version. It is very easy to 
install
+               and I really like the design. I could not be happier. I have 
used
+               Linux for twelve and a half years and I cannot promise that I 
will
+               never go back to using Frugalware Linux again. However, at the
+               moment I am happy exploring other possibilities. After all, 
they do
+               say that new experiences broaden the mind.</dd><br />

+  <p>View Your Mind (VYM) is a mind mapping tool but just what you do with it 
is
+  not easy to explain. The general idea is that a mind map allows you to
+  record your ideas and thoughts in a graphical format which shows the
+  connections between them. Creating a mind map is done by starting at a
+  central point and branching out from there into related topics and
+  sub-topics. The advantage to this method is that it's easier to understand
+  connections between ideas because they're clearly shown in the map. It
+  requires both the analytical and artistic sides of the brain so is a more
+  effective method of noting ideas compared with a written list or "brain
+  dump". Mind maps, and VYM in this case, can be used for many
+  purposes but common uses are project planning. Look at the VYM home page,
+  which itself was created using VYM, for an example of its output. Creating
+  a mind map on computer is easier than on paper and more easily shared since
+  you can send either the map file itself or export it a static image format.
+  Next time you're writing down ideas on a topic, try VYM and you just might
+  get better results.</p>

height="85" alt=""><br>
+
+  <p>This new section of the newsletter features screenshots of users' desktop
+  configurations. Whether we use a desktop environment or only a window
+  manager, most of us like to tweak the appearance of our desktop until it
+  looks just right. With almost endless configuration options it can become an
+  obsession. The screenshots which appear in this section are examples of what
+  you can achieve. You may not like them all but you may learn about an option
+  or application that you didn't know before. If the creator of the screenshot
+  has provided details of the configuration, these are provided below.</p>
+
+  <h4>Phayz</h4>
+
+  <p>Sadly there's only one users' desktop screenshot in this issue.
+  <em>Please do submit them in the forum, otherwise this feature
+  will disappear.</em></p>
+
+  <p>This screenshot features the IDE or Ikea Desktop Environment which is
+  very flexible, allowing for personal customisation. Highlights of this
+  desktop include:</p>
+
+  <ul>
+         <li>1. A device commonly called a telephone which allows
+         people to communicate verbally to each other. Although it's
+         considered outdated now, prior to the rise of social networks
+         it was the primary means of communication worldwide;</li>
+
+         <li> 2. A drinks container, allowing the convenient storage of
+         beverages such as tea or coffee. These are commonly used to keep the
+         user awake;</li>
+
+         <li>3. A notepad and pencil. These are even rarer than the telephone
+         and were once a common means of noting information. These are
+         considered of historic value only and have since been replaced with
+         smart phones and tablets;</li>
+
+         <li>4. A maze of cables which clearly illustrates the value of
+         wireless devices. In fact this arrangement is kept only to encourage
+         others to prevent this happening in their own homes.</li>
+  </ul>

+  <img class="face" src="/images/newsletter/wiki.png" width="85" height="85" 
/><br />
+
+  <p>The wiki is a very useful source of information about Frugalware,
+  hardware and applications. Sometimes the question is asked: what should go
+  in the wiki and what should go in the official manual? The general
+  guideline is that the manual's purpose is to help you install, manage and
+  maintain Frugalware only, not individual applications. The wiki's purpose
+  is to allow everyone to contribute any information that they think might
+  be useful to other Frugalware users. Changes occur so quickly in the FLOSS
+  world that it would impossible to cover everything in the official
+  documentation but a wiki allows collective knowledge to be shared, which
+  is itself a great feature of the FLOSS community.</p>
+
+  <p>Here are some highlights of recent additions and changes to the wiki.</p>
+
+  <ul>
+       <li>Elementary Portage - <strong>Updated.</strong> This page is used by
+       Devil505 to track the porting of the Elementary Project's applications
+       to Frugalware;</li>
+
+       <li>Plank (Français) - <strong>New.</strong>Details of the simple dock,
+       Plank;</li>
+
+       <li>SSH (and SSH (Français)) - <strong> Updated.</strong>Lots of
+       information about SSH</li>
+
+       <li>TODO-1.6 - <strong>New.</strong> This page is used to detail what's
+       planned for Frugalware release 1.6</li>
+
+       <li>Broadcom wireless (and Broadcom wireless (Français)) - <strong>New.
+       </strong> Lots if information about Broadcom wireless and various
+       configuration tweaks.</li>
+
+       <li>Beatbox (and Beatbox (Français)) - <strong>New.</strong> 
Information
+       about the Beatbox media player.</li>
