+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; And you prefer to spend time to update your distribution every day

+</I>&gt;<i> I update my distribution if not every day every week each time there is an

+</I>&gt;<i> latest versions. So right now the point is updating every day and
+</I>&gt;<i> upgrading to new version every 6 months (and truely, i am still using
+</I>&gt;<i> 2010).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The question of time is a wrong question, i spend time upgrading every day
+</I>&gt;<i> (well just clicking the applet, typing password and let's go !)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I don't know how often Mageia will be released, and how long all the
+</I>&gt;<i> versions will be maintened, i am not sure that a fixed release is the best
+</I>&gt;<i> choice. My feeling is that there is a huge hope, maybe not among
+</I>&gt;<i> developers, for a great rolling distro (understand great by with many
+</I>&gt;<i> contributors) that could emerge among all the fixed released distribution.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The point i want to emphasis is that i still do not understand why my
+</I>&gt;<i> Mandriva 2010 offers me OOo 3.1 while Mandriva 2010.1 offers OOo 3.2. Can
+</I>&gt;<i> OOo 3.2 work on Mandriva 2010 ? It also means that Mandriva should look
+</I>&gt;<i> for patch for OOo 3.1 and OOo 3.2 to maintain those two versions (and by
+</I>&gt;<i> the way, on a Mandriva 2009.1 you have OOo 3.1.1-0.3, on 2010 you have OOo
+</I>&gt;<i> 3.1.1-2.5 and on 2010.1 you have OOo 3.2-4), Mageia will face the same
+</I>&gt;<i> problem. For me, as a user, it would be simplier to provide just one
+</I>&gt;<i> version, the latest. Update can be delayed, time to test. But i really do
+</I>&gt;<i> not understand why OOo 3.2 is not available for Mandriva 2010 nor 2009.1.
+</I>&gt;<i> That's maybe a question of time of compilation, take long time to create
+</I>&gt;<i> OOo rpms, it takes 3 times more to create OOo rpms for 3 different edition
+</I>&gt;<i> (or is there any technical issue that forbid OOo 3.2 on Mandriva 2010 and
+</I>&gt;<i> 2009.1 ?). I also doubt that OOo 3.1 is still in development, neither
+</I>&gt;<i> seems OOo 3.2.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So i would not like the same for Mageia. It is a new project, we shall not
+</I>&gt;<i> need to re-take everything from Mandriva, but rather innovate and there i
+</I>&gt;<i> guess there is a way to innovate. Maybe a core part of the distribution
+</I>&gt;<i> could be in fixed release, the rest in rolling release.
+</I>
+
+i don't understand, if you click the applet every time there's an update, then
+when there's a new version, the you also click the applet and it updates...
+there isn't any real difference from a user pov...
