+I think we should not wait for people to raise questions about this, or
+it will be too late. When the announce of Mageia was done, I have seen
+a lot of people comparing Mandriva/Mageia with RedHat/Fedora, although
+the announcement was quite clear that it is not the same.
+
+If we don't explain this clearly and don't insist on it, a lot of people
+will immediately think it is the same as RedHat/Fedora, or that Mandriva
+and Mageia will merge.
