>=20

a status.
>=20
> He announced yesterday (Thursday, May 18) http://blog.mandriva.com/en/2012=
/05/17/mandriva-linux-will-return-to-the-community/. So several discussions a=
re popping up here and there. Mageia's

eroyvind (see https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?p=3D18041#p18041 - a=
lthough he doesn't have the full story it seems).
>=20
> He will announce early next Monday (22) that Mandriva SA will use Mageia a=
s a tech platform for its business server line, and contribute back. Antoine=
Ginies (Mandriva engineer in chief for the business server) will get in tou=
ch with us to see how we do this technically.
>=20
> He worries that trolls and discussions may damage Mageia in the coming day=
s (for both news: Mandriva using Mageia as a tech platform for its Business S=
erver line; and Mageia not following Mandriva in its foundation things) beca=
use he realizes that... community stuff sometimes goes out of hand; but he r=
eassured us that, whatever is said, he does mean good for everyone; so it's i=
mportant to play it cool and neutral on our side too.
>=20
> So, here's a suggested plan:
>=20
> * we announce/explicit both news on our side on Monday early morning (CEST=
) as well, in a single blog post embedding all Mandriva-related news:
> - on one side, Mageia is not going to join Mandriva foundation project (=
and why, cold reasons as we gave him),
> - on the other side, Mandriva is going to use Mageia as tech platform fo=
r its business server line (link) and contribute back.
> - this double news should make it more obvious that things are not so si=
mple as "Mageia is dumping Mandriva" or "Mandriva is rebasing on Mageia".
>=20
> * this news being published Monday morning, it leaves two full days to pro=
pagate, before we push the Mageia 2 release news (Tuesday evening) - interes=
t about Mageia will have raised a bit in the previous days, and this release=
news will hide partially the previous news.
>=20
> =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
>=20
> It's good news for Mageia as it makes Mageia ecosystem grow up. It will ma=
ke things clearer for Mageia community now as many things were told about Ma=
ndriva future and community. Mageia keeps its own governance and organizatio=
n which are now working quite well.
>=20
> So the next step is about communicating on these news. As said by Romain i=
t has to be prepared and be ready very quickly as Mandriva announcement is p=
lanned for sunday evening. Mandriva CEO will send us the draft of its own an=
nouncement so that we can check we all agree on the content.
>=20
> So now we have to work on the Mageia blog post which will be published on m=
onday morning:
