I was studying the different comments from mandriva forum / users blog
It seems that Rosa's stuff is not yet stable. Some says that Mageia is more
"Mandriva" than 2011.
You might want to try looking at Google Groups' archives of
alt.os.linux.mandriva for more comments. As with the other forums, some
like it, others don't. A significant number of those who don't like it
have moved to Mageia, because they believe it's truer to its Mandriva
roots than MDV 2011.
I haven't tried MDV 2011 yet, so I can't comment from personal
experience with it, but many of those comments are the reason I switched
to Mageia. As I've said in this forum before, it seemed to me that The
new Mandriva was the fork that went off in a new direction, while Mageia
remained on the course I preferred. While I'm not against looking at new
things, I would caution against allowing that newness to move us too far
off-course.
And now that I've thoroughly mixed my metaphors...
