I was +writing to them yesterday and mentioned that Mageia was a fork of +Mandriva and that the Mageia team might benefit from server space as +follows: + + As you may know, Mandriva is in a state of flux due to financial + considerations and may cease to exist. As such, Mageia has forked + out by the original developers of Mandrake/Mandriva and has gathered + most of the original developers on the new team. As such they are + looking for places where they can set up their CVS servers as well as + mirror sights to host the distribution, the first version of which is + due in June. + + I have managed a local copy of the Mandriva Distribution here at + LinuxCabal for years which our users can access from our local + internal net to install and to update from during our weekly Install + Fests. Each version uses about 100G of disk space. + + I mention this to see if Cloud Sigma would want to host a site for + them. I think that it would possibly be a great source of + promotional advertising for you. + + If you are interested, I can put you in contact with the correct + people at Mageia or LinuxCabal can actually manage the sight with + little or no change to our present configuration. + +They responded as follows: + + In terms of Mageia, I think this sounds like an interested + opportunity and possibility to collaborate. Please feel free to put + them in touch with me in order to see how we might assist them. + +This came from Robert Jenkins whose email is <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">robert at cloudsigma.com</A> +Robert is in a position to donate server space. + +Their service has been been excellent. + + + + +Richard + + +On 02/06/2011 06:25 AM, Blinov Vyacheslav wrote: +><i> В сообщении от Четверг 27 января 2011 03:17:26 автор Maarten Vanraes написал: +</I>>><i> Hi, +</I>>><i> +</I>>><i> I know -dev team doesn't exist yet, but in spite of that: some of us may be +</I>>><i> needed. +</I>>><i> +</I>>><i> Yesterday in the packaging meeting[1], misc and Stormi talked about the +</I>>><i> 3days they went to a Cross-Distro App Installer Meeting[2].
