"The developers of Mandriva Linux have quietly released what appears to be a public beta of Mandriva Linux 2006.1. This release comes with many updated packages, including X.Org 6.9 final, KDE 3.5.0, GNOME 2.12, and OpenOffice.org 2.0.0. The kernel remains at 2.6.12, although it has been selectively patched with various fixes from kernel 2.6.13 and later. Other improvements affecting networking, printing and X.Org configuration have also been implemented. See the changelog for a detailed list of changes."

Someone asked about an updated X.org, that's what I was talking about. 6.9 final will be issued as an official update (you know, that gets delivered via MandrivaUpdate or Mandriva Online) at some point (hopefully some point very soon, but I don't have a date).
As far as more general updates go, there's a special Club Christmas release that just came out for Club members. No plans for an updated Free release, though.

Do you mean an update ISO with public access or clubbers only ?
By the way, I have to mention the new kernel-linus package in Cooker, which is a great initiative. With this package you can test latest patch-free rc-release of the linux kernel.
