Yes I think it should be clear that Mageia doesn't do anything special
for Mandriva, which is treated like any other contributor, and is
independant. Maybe we can prepare a blog post to publish after the
announce from Mandriva to remind this and avoid possible misunderstandings ?

And reason for keeping this private is that it was requested by them,
and as Mageia is not taking any decision or doing something special
about this, I think there is no reason to refuse to keep this info
private for now.
