My main reason to applaud the decision to start Mageia and also my main motivation to join this project is the fact that it is community driven and community led. That it is not subject to commercial strategies and/or necessities or even pressure and restraints. I am not interested to face this situation again that some manager tells me what I have to do because of a situation he (or his kind) has created or caused. If somebody thinks about commercial options I will only agree if these options are under control of the community board, not the other way round, and if this commercial part has a different name and brand. I've been suffering from this mixture of commercial and half-free and free Mandriva Linux for years, having to correct misunderstandings, unclear descriptions and articles which still today make users at events ask me, "why Mandriva takes money for their distribution while Ubuntu is cost free?". I don't want that to be repeated with Mageia. wobo _______________________________________________ Mageia-dev mailing list Mageia-dev@mageia.org https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev
