Without being a developer myself I agree to Colin. The Mageia build system took time and sweat to be built up to a point where all people involved know their way with it. It has no annoying flaws (as far as I can tell from reading this list) nor is it obsolete like some unmaintained software package. Coming from this I think there has to be some very good and irresistable reasons to switch to another system, especially when most of the people would have to go back to point 1 to start to work with it. Better reasons than "all my friends have it". -- wobo
