+These are very generic arguments such that they are common to almost
+very FOSS discussion as are the traditional arguments of emacs vs. vi
+or Mac vs. PC or even email etiquette . That these types of arguments
+continue supports to the conclusion that they are 1) unresolvable and
+2) unimportant in the bigger picture.While fun, they are best avoided.
+
+As I understand it, those doing the &quot;grunt&quot;' work are busy
+establishing the infrastructure that will permit Mageia to be
+launched. They need our patience and our support.
+
+Since Mageia is a fork of Mandriva, the initial release --as best as I
+can tell from what I've read-- will be made as soon as possible and
+will likely be Mandriva2010.1 (or cooker) with cosmetic changes and
+likely the elimination of unmaintained or problematic packages.
+
+Given all that, it would probably be most productive for most of us
+here, if not directly involved in the dad-to-day mechanics of creating
+Mageia, to:
+1) contribute financially if and when possible
+2) volunteer to maintain packages
+3) volunteer to maintain documentation
+4) provide input on logos, icons and artwork
+5) save our ideas of the &quot;ultimate&quot; software, desktop environments and
+packaging managers until after the initial release when they can be be
+debated and acted upon in a productive manner.
