And, I must add, I don't think we should join their foundation
project, for the following reasons:
- Mageia, as a structure, seems much better to us as an independant,
inclusive project (to both people and organizations), than something
that seems likely to be under a corporate umbrella;
- we invested a lot in building Mageia governance already;
- we don't have the resources to invest into a new equivalent,
duplicate project, because we focus on something else now;
Besides, I'm not sure their strategy is very strong (unless they have
enough funding fort 2/3 years to see things coming) when they invest
on Mageia by using its technology, and invest in a separate, somewhat
concurrent community project. Focus of time and resources is usually
101. Or I am missing something.
But that doesn't prevent to wish them welcome and good luck.
