+<PRE>
+
+Well, I don't think we will ever come to an agreement especially as it
+seems that former mdv devs here seem to be very reluctant to change
+anything about the release cycle.
+
+Personally as a future Mageia packager I will try to concentrate on making
+backports (apart from maintaining some specific packages) so in a way I
+will be helping to make Mageia in practice a sort of 'light' rolling
+distro as suggested by a few people in this thread.
+
+But I just want to say that based on my experience spending time since many
+years on several Linux forums (not specifically Mandriva ones), I can say
+for sure that the majority of 'normal' (non-geeks) users FEAR AND EVEN
+HATE distro upgrades, they just want to be able to install new versions of
+apps, not risky complete distro upgrades.
+
+So a one year release cycle with lots of app backports (and maybe a kernel
+backport mid-cycle if there is important new hardware support) is IMHO the
+best release cycle for 'normal' users.
