What about doing both :


o  First a conservative rolling distribution. There's a lot of demand for that 
kind of distribution, even Debian seems to think about a stable testing. It 
would be the way to use Mageia for the average desktop user.


o  In addition an about-1-year release cycle distribution, a "snapshot" of the 
rolling one, supported 2 years, more suitable for entreprise/server use or for 
people with very low internet bandwith.


I'm not certain it would be more time consuming than a 6 month release cycle, 
and it would please a lot of people.
