We are sorry to announce today, December 1, that the Mageia 1 operating system has reach end-of-life (EOL) and it is no longer supported.

Announced last year, on June 1, 2011, Mageia 1 was the first Mageia release and it was supported for 18 months.

Starting with December 1, the Mageia foundation stoped "feeding" its first born operating system with security/critical fixes and software updates!

"Mageia 1 has now reached EOL (end of life) and will not receive any further security or bugfix updates.”

“You are encouraged to upgrade to Mageia 2 to remain fully updated." was stated in the official blog announcement.

Therefore, all Mageia 1 users are urged to upgrade their systems to the current stable release, Mageia 2, which can be downloaded right now from Softpedia.
