+<PRE>Hello,
+
+The media names on Mageia 1 and Cauldron currently look like this, when
+added with urpmi.addmedia --distrib :
+ Core Release
+ Core Release Debug
+ Core Updates
+ Core Updates Debug
+ Core Backports
+ Nonfree Release
+ Core 32bit Release
+ Core 32bit Updates
+ ...
+
+I suggest we replace them on Cauldron and later versions with names
+like this :
+
+ cauldron/x86_64/core/release
+ cauldron/x86_64/debug/core/release
+ cauldron/x86_64/core/updates
+ cauldron/x86_64/debug/core/updates
+ cauldron/x86_64/core/backports
+ cauldron/x86_64/nonfree/release
+ cauldron/i586/core/release
+ cauldron/i586/core/updates
+ ...
+
+I think it's better because :
+ - it doesn't have spaces, so doesn't need to be quoted in urpmi command lines
+ - doesn't have capitals, so easier to type right
+ - includes version of Mageia, so you can quickly see which version(s)
+ you're using
+ - match the paths on the mirrors, so I think it's more clear what the
+ media is and easier to remember
+
+What do you think ?
+
+</PRE>
