+Sorry but I can't agree here: when I build a software, I like to build
+_just_ the software, not the whole system around! (I would use a Gentoo
+otherwise).
+I loved Mandriva because of this point: it was at the same time simple
+to use AND full of resource to build and customize specialized applications.
+
+If you are on this way, you can also remove QCad*: yes it is old,
+unmaintained and based on QT3 - but still the best free 2D drawing
+software on Linux ...
+
+As a user, I still use applications which needs qt3 and with no
+equivalent based on QT4 ; so I would like qt3-devel to be included in Mageia
+
+I can't see the point in not including packages just because they are
+unmaintained. They are still used and useful + you have people who want
+to package them, so ?
+
+Thanks for reading me,
+Xavier
+
+* maybe it is already removed from Mageia, I didn't checked. But I think
+I can find a lot of other example of obsolete &amp; unmaintained software
+but still useful which were in Mandriva (eg xmms).
