Where does Mageia stand wrt security fixes? I realise these take
significant people-power. As an avid follower of lwn.net, I'm used to
seeing daily the record of security fixes released by various
distributions. Mageia virtually never features on that list (I recall
once ever). Unsure of possible explanations; lwn don't have access to
what we do, our security fixes are not clearly identified as such, or
alternatively Mageia is behind in this area??
It would be reassuring if we had some identifiable info re security
fixes, in terms of trust in the distribution. Am I just missing some
info which is already easily available?

If you wish to help speed the updates process up a bit we are very short
of people in QA, especially now we are supporting two releases.
If you or anybody reading would like to help out and become involved in
making Mageia please take a look here and consider joining the team:
