+&gt;<i> Mondo package got properly epoched ~2 weeks ago:
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/mondo/current/SPECS/mondo.spec?r1=75254&amp;r2=96498">http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/mondo/current/SPECS/mondo.spec?r1=75254&amp;r2=96498</A>
+</I>
+Why do we start a new distro then, if it's to reproduce the errors made
+in the previous one ?
+
+&gt;<i> 1. we promise people an upgrade path from 2010.1/2
+</I>
+They still have an upgrade path, and that wasn't raising an error.
+
+&gt;<i> 2. rpm/urpmi/rpmdrake does not read release notes
+</I>&gt;<i> (same goes for many endusers)
+</I>
+I disagree. THat's one of the most important reading when I go from RHEL
+5.x to 5.x+1, between Mandriva, Mageia or whatever distro I'm using.
+
+It's much more easy to point people to a link and tell them to read, to
+solve their issue/question.
+
+&gt;<i> 3. we dont do exceptions for package(r)s
+</I>
+Life is plenty of exceptions. And there are times when there are good
+reasons to do them. Creating a new distro is not a task you'll do next
+week again. Thinking to fix what was wrong in the previous one was IMO
+more important than ensuring that level of upgrade path for a couple of
+users of a package.
+
+I especially took time to discuss that point with Anne before taking any
+decision and documented it
+(<A HREF="http://brunocornec.wordpress.com/2011/05/16/considerations-on-mondorescue-packaging-for-mageia/">http://brunocornec.wordpress.com/2011/05/16/considerations-on-mondorescue-packaging-for-mageia/</A>)
+
+I'm a bit disappointed that no real discussion/vote/choice was made
+publicly.
+Bruno.
