Yes, but if said company is ready to act as a member of the community (like any of us but with maybe more means), and contribute to the project + do whatever it wants from the free distribution (corporate desktop, MDS, OEM products or anything else), then it's a win-win.

+</I>Having watched the various opinions on this thread, I think it is very
+important to collaberate with Mandriva to attain the goals of our
+community distribution, as much as is reasonably possible. This
+includes accepting foundation funding, sharing cooker, even Mandriva
+representation on the board -- while maintaining our right to decide our
+future direction.
+In my mind evolving to a RedHat/Fedora relationship would be ideal, but
+if not, look at the success of Mozilla, started with funding from AOL.
+The advantage of an independant Mageia is that we focus on community
+needs, and Mandriva focuses on commercial needs -- quite different
+focuses, even though most of the software can be the same.
+I'm glad to see that Anne is on side, and I hope that Romain will
+continue to contribute to Mageia, as his experience seems invaluable.
+
+- Andr&#233; (just a long-time Mandriva user that hasn't to date contributed
+much more than bug reports. And hopes to continue more actively to the
+first Mageia release.)
