I just want to know what every one thinks, what is going to happen to Mandrake. Since Redhat is no longer going to support and release Redhat and instead have Fedora as a replacement. Douse that mean Mandrake is going to be based off Fedora?


It certainly started off being based on RedHat, but that was a _long_ time ago. The two are now so divergent one can hardly describe Mandrake as being based on anything except itself!

(This is one of the great strengths of Linux - that a distribution can break from another one and, if the reason for doing so is strong enough, it will carve out its own niche. Then the break might happen again - for example, PCLinuxOS* is based on Mandrake 9.2 :)
