+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> perhaps that's why they migrated, so the wife could make the majority of
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> the purchasing decisions. ;) I'm afraid that your impressions fly in
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> the face of all the real marketing intelligence. Dad or kids buy the
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> computers because Mum has been left out of the demographic, typical
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> given the number of women in the industry, but target that demographic
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> and Mum becomes decision maker.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>You are partly right, but you miss an important point. It is probably
+true, in families in liberal western societies, that the mother decides
+most of the purchases, including what specific item is purchased. And
+it may well be that the mother decides whether or not to buy a
+computer. However, at least here in Canada (where women do indeed make
+most of the purchasing decisions), women have a strong tendancy to defer
+to a male opinion in deciding what computer to purchase, or operating
+system or software to use. This even occurs in professional settings,
+in contexts where a woman obviously has the greatest understanding of
+the company's needs. I've seen this numerous times in consulting, where
+I had to encourage their input in order to lead to a rational decision
+for the company, which was prepared to follow the opinion of someone who
+obviously did not understand the situation.
+However, I do agree that the mother will have an important influence in
+the type of software selected, even if she allows the man to make the
+final decision.
+Note that in my mind, using this frame of mind as the primary criteria
+in selecting the logo is misleading.
+What is needed is a logo that is distinctive, and attractive. And not
+out of place for the technology in question. These factors are
+culturally dependant as well.
+Note that most successful computer companies use blue/green colours. A
+notable exception being Ubuntu - which like Microsoft, uses their
+bottomless pockets to promote their distro. As well as having excellent
+documentation. So they succeed despite their ugly brown colours. Which
+may be considered attractive in certain markets, like South Africa.
+&gt;&gt;<i> I don't know about marketing, I've just been living here for decades
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> and been helping in the computer field for more than 15 years. I hold
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> computer courses entry level, I give advice with computer purchases in
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> families, etc. All my practical experience tells me what I've written
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> here.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> OK then let me put it another way, you have taught IT for 15 years. Probably
+</I>&gt;<i> in the same geographic area. It's a pretty good guess that you have probably
+</I>&gt;<i> no more than three degrees of separation to maybe 90% of the people you
+</I>&gt;<i> interact with. 90+% of the people that you interact with speak the same
+</I>&gt;<i> native tongue as you, so already your view of the world is extremely limited.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So lets talk hypothetically: If you have taught for 15 years and you had an
+</I>&gt;<i> average class size of say 20. 5 periods a day that's a hundred faces a day
+</I>&gt;<i> and you saw these people once a week and assuming a 40 week school year.
+</I>&gt;<i> That's 20,000 a year.... hang on not enough, OK you change completely 4 times
+</I>&gt;<i> a year, so that's 80.000 a year... wow that's a lot, over 15 years that's
+</I>&gt;<i> 1.2million people you could have hypothetically interacted with each for about
+</I>&gt;<i> ten hours total. However in marketing terms on a global scale that is a
+</I>&gt;<i> pinprick sample. Marketers get information for instance, just from rewards
+</I>&gt;<i> programmes that do that sort of sample in many countries in any one hour of
+</I>&gt;<i> any one day across many demographics, ages, income streams, locations and so
+</I>&gt;<i> on and what this tells us is that apart from some minor local differences,
+</I>&gt;<i> people in western democratic, first world countries behave in a very similar
+</I>&gt;<i> fashion.
+</I>Obviously you don't understand how surveys work. It makes me wonder if
+you have ever done one. (btw, I have.)
+Surveys depend on a very limited sample, and extrapolate that to presume
+a global result. Like election polls, they can be -- and often are --
+dead wrong.
+The experiences of wobo -- and similar experiences myself -- are just as
+valid.
+I'm not trying to say that you do not have good insights -- but rather
+that in is too easy to get carried away, and other's input is important.
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Every place is unique, but not as unique as we'd all like to believe, one
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> thing that marketing tells you. A good example is Micky Ds, the same
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> everywhere, with slight local variations.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Nonsense (to use the same language as you do). You can't apply some
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> junkfood chain success story to computers and software.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> LOL, in fact you can, at the end of the day it is a consumer item. It is a
+</I>&gt;<i> luxury good that only a small proportion of the worlds population can afford.
+</I>&gt;<i> In capitalist consumer model societies the market has little variation apart
+</I>&gt;<i> from local fashion. So for instance, like McDs, Ipods and Iphones are sold
+</I>&gt;<i> the same way world wide and that is matched with other global brands.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>You can -- but ignoring the difference between the contexts introduces
+bias -- which can lead to totally wrong conclusions.
+e.g., if you are marketing automotive tools, you would probably focus on
+men you like to work on cars. If you included women who didn't, you
+could end up with colours preferred by women as an important factor.
+Obviously ridiculous if you carefully consider the context.
+btw, a computer and computer software is not necessarily a luxery item.
+If it is used for educational purposes, managing the budget, and
+communication, it is no more a luxury item than a car.
+Also note that, depending on the type of computer, today most of the
+world's population CAN afford a computer. (In the sense of one per family.)
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> As I said, I disagree with your points not because I am another
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> marketing guy but because of experience.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> wobo
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> As I pointed out above your experience is in fact limited, that's not a bad
+</I>&gt;<i> thing, it means you can target those variations that the global brands ignore
+</I>&gt;<i> in a local market. However our need is to be a global brand and so we target
+</I>&gt;<i> demographics that we know exist every where. So for instance: Parents
+</I>&gt;<i> everywhere, no matter what country or society, want the best for their Kids...
+</I>&gt;<i> simple really.
+</I>What isn't simple is how one accommodates this desire. Which will
+differ by culture and personal experiences. There is no
+one-size-fits-all, without an enormous advertising budget.
+One thing that is certain to me, the logo is not the answer. A logo
+that says &quot;young family&quot; will alienate other types of users, who are
+necessarily much more numerous.
+These other users include, potentially, most of the current Mandriva users.
+However easy selection of packages to accommodate the various niche
+markets can indeed lead to an expanding user base.
+And assuredly, you play an important role in identifying these various
+niche markets.

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Such applications don't have to be installed by default. They just
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> have

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> available on existing Mandriva DVD's. It could even be called &quot;Young
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Family&quot;.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Note that in the past (at least about 10 years ago), RedHat CD's had

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Family&quot;, and &quot;Home Office&quot;, for example, all containing the
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> go-openoffice office suite, among other applications.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> I believe that the current Mandriva DVD doesn't have any overlap
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> between
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> installation groups.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> - Andr&#233; (andre999)
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> I like this approach.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Same here. When I used SuSE Linux 4.4.1 they had the same approach. I
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> even did several installations, each with a different set of
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> applications, using the same /home. A good way to find out what you
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> really want/need.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Marc, what you wrote about kids being the future is common knowledge,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> I wonder that so many companies do not recognize that. Microsoft does,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> they are sponsoring school computer networks and internet access, thus
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> creating their future client base.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> wobo
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Suse Linux really lost momentum when Novell didn't/has not recognized
+</I>&gt;<i> that its netware application days are at an end. If they pushed for a
+</I>&gt;<i> Suse educational netware application/distro, most school boards using
+</I>&gt;<i> the Novel netware apps would migrate this way. Fewer disruptions to
+</I>&gt;<i> their systems. School boards plan 5-10 years in advance for changes
+</I>&gt;<i> and it is extremely difficult for them to change in the middle of
+</I>&gt;<i> planned migration. There is a lot of money involved in this. Most
+</I>&gt;<i> board will pay Microsoft approx. $30-50/seat for use of MSWord -- so
+</I>&gt;<i> for example our board has over 10,000 computers. That is a huge cost
+</I>&gt;<i> just for the use of a Wordprocessor. I don't know the cost of the
+</I>&gt;<i> Novell install/contract but it would most likely approach this amount.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> If Mageia had educational partners on-board it would be a huge initial
+</I>&gt;<i> plus to the distro. School boards are, in a traditional sense,
+</I>&gt;<i> expected to spend money and not save/make money. We could, for
+</I>&gt;<i> example, offer to tailor certain aspects of the distro for our
+</I>&gt;<i> education partners. Note that the focus on educational institutions is
+</I>&gt;<i> for foster use of knowledge, so they would most likely be interested
+</I>&gt;<i> in areas of a distro that focussed on kids/adult learning needs. If
+</I>&gt;<i> Mageia did this well, then this could then lead to more educational
+</I>&gt;<i> partners coming on board. We would only need 2-5 educational partners
+</I>&gt;<i> to kick-start this approach. I would suggest to try for 1 educational
+</I>&gt;<i> partner per continent. It would then mushroom from there.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Unfortunately, not having a Mageia server service may hurt us. But
+</I>&gt;<i> there is nothing to stop us from partnering or tooling up our
+</I>&gt;<i> community distro to work well with a server (in this case I would go
+</I>&gt;<i> for RedHat servers).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> There is no doubt that the next major expenses in the very near future
+</I>&gt;<i> for school boards is the change in netware applications. And they are
+</I>&gt;<i> still very confused. What they do know is that it will most likely be
+</I>&gt;<i> a linux solution. That is pretty well accepted.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Marc
+</I>Targeting the school boards makes a lot of sense.
+Note that Openoffice targeted various gov't organisations in France,
+some of which ended up migrating to Mandriva as well. Maybe that could
+work with school boards as well. I'm tempted to try something like that
+with mine, in banlieue of Montr&#233;al.
+Just out of curiosity, what is your school board ?
+
+For the server, if Mandriva management were a little more reasonable, it
+would be good to partner with them. (I'd like to see something like
+RedHat/Fedora.)
+In any case, you can't go wrong with RedHat.

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> So, what's the difference Mageia had toward other distribution?
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &quot;Simple to use yet powerful&quot; :
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> - newbie-friendly (yes ubuntu is on this market, but to me Mandriva
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> does it better)
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> - powerful
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> - comprehensive (many packages available in many fields)
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Then nothing prevents from saying also, for example :
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &quot;Mageia, ideal for music making&quot;, with news, screenshots, people
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> sharing their experience, howtos...
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &quot;Mageia, easy yet powerful on servers&quot;, ...
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> You said nothing about my concern that Mandriva may be seen only as,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> say, a distribution for education. What about that ?
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> All purpose means no one knows what the distro wants to do.
+</I>&gt;<i> Making a specific version for education/small business or whatever
+</I>&gt;<i> won't makes the distro seems only focus on one thing, but a proof of
+</I>&gt;<i> full feature OS.
+</I>Don't agree. A special version will create the impression that it is
+all that Mageia can do.
+On the other hand, the possibility to select a special group of software
+(like &quot;young family&quot; or &quot;education&quot;) to be installed from the DVD would
+be very useful.
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The point is: you have to emphasis something different, not something
+</I>&gt;<i> others also owns/easily achieved/already well-implemented/advertised.
+</I>&gt;<i> I don't agree with the way ubuntu flushing the whole board of different
+</I>&gt;<i> purpose but actually same thing strategy, but it does makes people knows
+</I>&gt;<i> what to choose to fit their need, which is important to makes people
+</I>&gt;<i> accept your product.
+</I>&gt;<i> We do have to find a place in the market slice, or no one would care
+</I>&gt;<i> about who you are. All-purpose is great, but not for people who is
+</I>&gt;<i> unfamiliar
+</I>&gt;<i> to our distro:
+</I>&gt;<i> It's too vague and not attractive since no one knows your strength.
+</I>&gt;<i> ____
+</I>Strength, you ask ?
+Ease of use -- without sacrificing power and security.
+In my mind, Mandriva is even easier to use and maintain than Microsoft's
+version of windows, especially if you don't use their office suite.
+And certainly it is easier to use and maintain than most distros.
+
+That doesn't preclude talking about the various uses readily available,
+especially if there are special installation groups available on the DVD.

+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &quot;A distribution for Newbie&quot; is good, but I think what Graham said is
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> better.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Well,
+</I>&gt;<i> saying &quot;a distribution for newbies&quot; is not as good as it sound.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> If you market the distribution so people think &quot;if you are a newbie, use
+</I>&gt;<i> this distro&quot;, people will think &quot;he use this distribution so he is a
+</I>&gt;<i> newbie&quot;. This will drive knowledgeable peoples away to others
+</I>&gt;<i> distribution, because they will feel they will learn more by using
+</I>&gt;<i> another distro ( which is wrong ) and because others peoples will appear
+</I>&gt;<i> as more knowledgeable when they use a distro that is not aimed at
+</I>&gt;<i> newbies.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> In turn, this mean a diminution of the global expertise in the
+</I>&gt;<i> community. Less expert users to answer to support, less experts users to
+</I>&gt;<i> report bug, fix packages, create softwares or contribute, and to
+</I>&gt;<i> basically teach to new users how to be good community member resulting
+</I>&gt;<i> in less quality, and a less sustainable community.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Apple does it correctly. They never say &quot;we target newbie users&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i> See <A HREF="http://www.apple.com//why-mac/">http://www.apple.com//why-mac/</A>
+</I>&gt;<i> &quot;better computer&quot; &quot;most advanced os&quot; &quot;award winning support&quot; &quot;latest
+</I>&gt;<i> technology&quot; &quot;software you love&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Everything resolve around how they are good, not how beginner you can
+</I>&gt;<i> be.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Or see <A HREF="http://www.apple.com/why-mac/better-os/">http://www.apple.com/why-mac/better-os/</A>
+</I>&gt;<i> they say &quot;it is easy&quot;, but they never say &quot;it is easy and can be used by
+</I>&gt;<i> a newbie&quot;. They say &quot;it is easy and you will learn how to use it fast&quot;,
+</I>&gt;<i> which is more positive.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> And so I think we should also try to avoid this pitfall, right from the
+</I>&gt;<i> start, if we want to have a thriving sustainable community.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>how about :
+&quot;Mageia : Linux that just works&quot;
+&quot;Mageia : Easy, Powerful, and Secure&quot;
+
+The danger is to identify Mageia too much with any particular market.
+Mandriva has attracted users and developpers by its ease of use.
+Mageia starts with this strength, which we should promote.
+That doesn't stop us from communicating the range of capabilities of
+Mageia, just that we should avoid too narrow a focus.

+</I>
+Bonjour Andr&#233;:
+
+As an example, the official word from the Ontario Ministry of Education
+is that if users cannot afford the use of MSOffice, that we are allowed
+to promote the use of StarOffice. Here is the official link:
+<A HREF="http://www.osapac.org/db/view_software.php?id=310">http://www.osapac.org/db/view_software.php?id=310</A> Sun had made
+arrangements to provide support through their 1-800 ... telephone
+service (unofficially, they had also said that they would have supported
+OpenOffice user queries as well, although this policy may have changed
+after this policy had been posted on the net). There are over 2 million
+students being taught in Ontario where I teach. Quite a good market to
+target. You can find the statistics on registered school student numbers
+here: <A HREF="http://www42.statcan.ca/smr08/2007/smr08_088_2007-eng.htm">http://www42.statcan.ca/smr08/2007/smr08_088_2007-eng.htm</A>
+
+If we were to commit to an &quot;Education based&quot; install (this could be done
+at the point of installation where you could tag the type of distro that
+you would want installed) with SOLID alternatives for the most common
+software packages used in educational institutions, then we could make a
+convincing case for the installation of Mageia desktops in schools. Most
+governmental agencies today are sensitive to ways of cutting down on
+expenses.
+
+The only problem that I would see in doing such a promotion is that this
+type of usage would require a server/client solution. This is where the
+choice of server partnership would become important. RehHat and Suse are
+well-known servers options in the business world. We could then partner
+up with them and make sure that Mageia/RedHat or Mageia/Suse solutions
+are rock solid. Unless we seek a partnership with MandrivaLinux server,
+but in North American markets, Mandriva is really not a force to contend
+with and is not really known.

+Again this is something you can not generalize, different countries
+have different structures.
+In Germany it is not a school board who decides what software will be
+bought for a certain region or school. This is decided on state level
+for the various states of the federal republic. You have to go to some
+state office and compete with the reps of Microsoft. You do not talk
+to parents or teachers, it's some bureaucrats who decide this over
+here (with very few exceptions).
+
+Same with many other countries. This school board system as in the US
+is not a world wide system.

+Marc is talking about Canada and despite rumours to the contrary, Canada is as
+much a part of the US as New Zealand is a part of Australia.
+
+And In fact in all of these countries and the UK as a matter of fact, software
+purchase is a school decision. Education Departments, as in NZ, may negotiate
+with vendors for a block price for schools but the purchase is the schools
+decision.
+
+Targeting schools does make a lot of sense in a Global context.

+I can't speak for Andr&#233; (he sounds like he is Canadian), but I am not a
+US citizen, I am Canadian. Our school system and software purchase
+models are the same as you describe. However, we do consult with school
+boards and interested partners before acquiring software licences. I am
+sure, the German states would consult with their partners before doing
+such as well. We have provinces in Canada and, as you say, in Germany
+you have states -- same hierarchy but with different names. As far as I
+know, the American model is more of a federalist model and
+consultation/coordination is done mostly from a national point of view.
+I am sure someone on the list will straighten us out on this account.
+
+We shouldn't assume that, if people describe a different system on this
+ML, that they are therefore American citizen who are trying to impose it
+on everyone. I just assume that we are all Canadians on the list (chuckles).

+It is strange that parents, teachers and even students would not have a

+software programmes if you do not consult with your partners? I do not
+know of any system where it would survive without input from groups
+using the software/hardware. Otherwise, people would simply not use the
+software that was dictated to them and the politicians would then have
+to try to rationalize the reasons why they spent the $$$$$ for software
+that nobody uses. There must be a consultative process otherwise your
+educational system would have complained for sure.
+
+In Canada, and in my province of Ontario, we are even mandated to get
+input from our students. We all have a say. That is not to say that
+there is no political involvement, but even so, voices of all ages are
+heard and reported back to the people in charge of planning and purchases.

+Schools and parents and students are not partners for the politicians.
+The problem is, high level MS reps (even Mr. Gates did) visit the MP
+(like the governor of a US state) and talks with him. Then the
+contracts are signed and the whole hierarchy downwards has to act
+according to those contracts. Schools and students and parents are at
+the bottom of that hierarchy.
+
+Who said we do have an education problem?

+They do complain, so what? The politicians have their opinions and
+they act upon that. If the people's annoyance level is high enough the
+people will show it at next elections. But whoever they vote for, they
+are jsut the same.
+
+Sorry, I did not want to get into politics, it's just that over here

+I don't believe that anyone is talking about having a global strategy
+for Mageia. The subject line does say &quot;Identifying Target Markets&quot;. I
+believe the intent was to focus on some groups where there was a
+possibility of expanding the usage of Mageia. Adapting to regional
+differences would then make part of the target strategy.

+AFAIK grub2 is still too problematic in many cases, but if it's possible to

+It's always best to give the user as much choice as possible, while at the

+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> An old but interresting about interview for Mandriva's tools in perl:
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://www.perl.com/pub/2005/02/24/mandrakelinux.html">http://www.perl.com/pub/2005/02/24/mandrakelinux.html</A>
+</I>
+Thanks for posting this that interview is very interesting.
+It would be great if we could have Rafael Garcia-Suarez contributing to
+Mageia.
+Does anyone know what he does these days?
+
+This quote is particularly interesting:
+
+&quot;Rafael: Not all tools were always written in Perl. However using
+consistently a same language allows to share and reuse libraries across
+all tools, be it the perl/rpmlib bindings or custom graphical toolboxes.
+Thus, for example, the OS installer shares code with urpmi and rpmdrake. A
+scripting language was preferred because of rapidity of development and
+ease of debug -- attempts at writing rpmdrake in C were painful, although
+that was before I was hired by Mandrakesoft. Perl was a natural choice
+since there were already very good in-house skills for it.&quot;

+
+But are we always knowledgeable enough to be able to set up the system to
+use our choice?
+
+I confess to being a Mandriva Linux user for only 10 years but I have been
+an Opera user (and purchaser) for a year or two before that. I ALWAYS have
+difficulty when removing Firefox and replacing it with Opera as I can NEVER
+find all of the nooks and crannies of the system and various software
+packages which presume that Firefox must be available.
+
+I would be much happier to discover that a distribution had taken my
+choices seriously enough to check with me during the install and then make
+sure that my choice is properly and fully integrated.
+
+Then perhaps we could highlight applications which expect no other browser
+than Firefox and proceed to educate their authors/packagers as to the
+importance of user choices.
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Majority of users do not want choice.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+OK, that may be true, but when one of that majority decides to broaden the
+horizons of their browsing experience then will they magically be learned
+enough to be able to fix all of the integration issues for themselves? I
+suspect not.
+
+An install time selector screen and supporting scripts would be a very good
+starting point for a &quot;Change Default Browser&quot; wizard, much as XFDrake tries
+to hide the complexities of switching video drivers.
