+&gt;<i> Le mardi 30 novembre 2010 11:37:42, Thomas Backlund a &#233;crit :
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; So, after reading all different opinions here and discussing with
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; founders, here is the idea:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; We start of with 3 medias: core, nonfree, tainted and 3 debug medias:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; debug_core, debug_nonfree, debug_tainted. In order to avoid confusion,
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; we wont use the name &quot;restricted&quot; as it was used in MDV commercial
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; products.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Now all of theese medias will have their 5 submedias: release, updates,
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; updates_testing, backports, backports_testing.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; That brings us to 30 medias in total :)
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; The details of the media layout suggestion is also at the end of this
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; mail, and at: <A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=mirrors_policy">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=mirrors_policy</A>
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Now...
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; We wont blindly import every package from cooker, instead we'll
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; start off the import with basesystem (as in bootable system with
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; shell access), compiler and rpm tools (and of course their buildtime
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; depencies). When all of that is imported and rebuilt, we have a working
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; buildsystem / base to build from.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Then we to go on with and start importing X, the different
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; DE's and every other package needed to build a full distro.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; By doing it this way, we get a clean start, every package rebuilt,
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; and no old/unmaintained stuff in the beginning.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Then as more maintainers join, I guess more packages will be imported
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; from cooker and other sources. And packages can always be requested.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; As for those that want the core/extra split:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; We already tried it with main/contrib split. And I know mdv is now
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; trying to refine what belongs in main or not, but thats for mdv
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; to work through the &quot;problem&quot; as it wont be an easy task.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; For us I think the best way for now is to start with this suggested
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; layout, and see if it works well for us. Remember, as Michael pointed
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; out, this is a community supported distro, and only time will tell how
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; well the community actually will support their distro.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Point is, if we later decide this is not working well, we can always
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; review the decisions and if decided do the split.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Can we reach an agreement that this is the way to start the distro?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> OK for me provided support policy matters are not discarded forever but
+</I>&gt;<i> only delayed to allow things to start.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> It would be great to start QA Team's organization as soon as possible. I
+</I>&gt;<i> don't think we need to wait for the BS and the packages to begin thinking
+</I>&gt;<i> about those matters.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Regards
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Samuel

+i agree
