+
+FYI, here's a copy of the answer sent to JM Croset about not
+participating to Mandriva foundation workgroup.
+
+Translation first, original in French below.
+
+Dear Jean-Manuel,
+
+thank you very much for this information and this invitation.
+
+Without regret or disdain, after discussion with other board members,
+I can tell you that we are not interested in joining this workgroup.
+
+- Mageia would have been the ideal collaboration hub for such an
+entity, to join and grow, precisely to play such a role; but it did
+not happen, probably because our governance rules don't fit
+[Mandriva's] Supervisory Board; so be it. We will not walk another
+road, this very governance has been defined as it is for very specific
+reasons.
+
+- we spent a lot of time, energy, conversations, to define Mageia on
+several levels. And we went on producing stuff, and regularly put
+things back to work.
+
+- we don't have much information about trends behind the future
+entity, what are the goals of each of the potential participants. Ours
+are public and clear since day 1.
+
+- we don't have the means (neither the wish) to disperse further our
+(small) means on a new thing to define and build, we think our
+priorities are elsewhere at this point.
+
+- this won't prevent each of us to collaborate, since our tools and
+technos will be Free Software.
+
+
+Feel free to share the above reasons, they will be the same if we are
+asked why we chose not to participate.
+
+And we wish you good luck, and temper, for this endeavour.
+
+----
+
+Cher Jean-Manuel,
+
+merci beaucoup de votre invitation et de cette information.
+
+Sans regret ni d=E9dain, apr=E8s discussion et m=FBre r=E9flexion avec les
+membres du bureau, je peux vous informer que nous ne sommes pas
+int=E9ress=E9s =E0 participer =E0 ce groupe de travail.
+
+ - Mageia nous aurait sembl=E9, a priori, id=E9al, comme hub de
+collaboration =E0 investir et grossir, pour remplir pr=E9cis=E9ment le r=F4=
+le
+d'une telle entit=E9 ; mais cela n'a pas eu lieu, probablement parce que
+le mode de gouvernance (point cl=E9 s'il en est) ne convient pas au
+Conseil de Surveillance ; dont acte. Nous ne nous engagerons pas sur
+une autre voie, cette gouvernance a =E9t=E9 d=E9finie pour des raisons tr=
+=E8s
+pr=E9cises.
+
+ - nous avons investi beaucoup de temps, d'=E9nergie, de discussions, =E0
+d=E9finir Mageia, sur plusieurs plans. Et puis nous sommes pass=E9s =E0
+l'=E9tape de production, et remettons r=E9guli=E8rement les choses =E0 plat=
+.
+
+ - nous n'avons pas beaucoup d'information sur les tendances qui se
+dessinent derri=E8re cette future entit=E9, quels sont les objectifs et
+les buts des uns et des autres. Les n=F4tres sont clairs et publics
+depuis le 1er jour.
+
+ - nous n'avons donc pas les moyens (ni le souhait) de disperser
+davantage nos (encore faibles) moyens sur une nouvelle entit=E9 =E0
+d=E9finir et construire, car nous pensons que nos priorit=E9s sont
+ailleurs =E0 ce stade.
+
+ - cela n'emp=EAchera pas, =E0 l'avenir, de collaborer sur le plan
+technique, puisque nos outils et technos respectives seront libres.
+
+Voil=E0. Sentez-vous libre de transmettre ces raisons, elles seront au
+c=9Cur de nos r=E9ponses si l'on nous pose la question de notre
+non-participation =E0 votre initiative.
+
+Et nous vous souhaitons bonne chance, et de l'=E9nergie, pour cette entrepr=
+ise.
+
+Bien cordialement,
+
+Romain d'Alverny
