+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; more than seeing an OS from their friends (that is really useful
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; anyway, overall in the first steps), i would like to change the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; synonim linux=difficult. if you change it (as it happened often to

+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; I don't see how that contradicts my point of _not_ promoting &quot;Mageia&quot;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; but &quot;&quot;Mageia&quot; the Linux distro&quot;....
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> it is only a different POV. (but interesting in my opinion).. you say
+</I>&gt;<i> linux-
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;mageia, i say mageia-&gt;linux : )
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> cheers,
+</I>&gt;<i> Marcello
+</I>Sorry to meddle, but as part of the marketing team I really want to synthesize
+both of the views exposed here instead of choosing between them. And the key
+is Graham's proposal: different branding. This does not mean reinventing the
+wheel for every single audience, as some elements can possibly be shared, but
+rather that we need to approach the kinds of users at large differently. That
+is why we look for a &quot;target&quot; market and create a brand for it. And this
+branch of the discussion fits nicely into such a proposal.
+
+You see, non-technical users, of which I am an acquaintance as I maintain tons
+of Windows boxes in my university (informally, but it's still work), barely
+have even the knowledge necessary to choose an OS. Therefore, the branding for
+them cannot possibly insert Linux or other technical details; it is more of a
+simplified picture of what Free Software is and how we insert ourselves into
+that. This is seen in our Core Values, where the main focus is showing people
+that we are a Community, not a corporation, and that we care about our users.
+On the other side we have the intermediate-to-advanced Linux users, which CAN
+and/or DO choose a Linux OS and FOSS Technologies. To these users we can
+introduce a branding that includes our special characteristics in the Linux
+world and the advantages of using our development branch, etc. But Graham's
+point still stands, that we need to define these target markets more fully so
+we can better assess the Mageia reputation in each of them.
+
+I hope this can help us reach a consensus without splitting ourselves.
+
+P.S. Sorry if I break the thread, I am not very familiar with nettiquete and
+my current mail client. IT WAS NOT INTENTIONAL, if it happens... :)

+
+My opinion is from my POV: I'm a home user, FLOSS enthusiast, curious,
+I love computers, love to read, love to learn, love to help in forums,
+but in the end, I'm just a regular-guy-not-developer. I work in
+nothing related with computers, just an administrative employee. I'm a
+dad, I'm a husband.
+
+Said this, I start.
+
+What I see when I navigate Internet is this:
+
+<A HREF="http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/">http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/</A>

+
+These are examples of the way other big companies &quot;sell&quot; their
+products. They keep it simple. They describe it with simplicity,
+non-technical language. Obviously, they are targeting people that know
+very little about computers, OS, software.
+
+Images are almost always showing mom+dad+kids (or teens) all together,
+around the notebook, laughing, enjoying. Or teenagers with their
+backpacks, and skates, cool clothes, doing things like chat, listening
+music, watching a video, facebook, etc.
+
+My point is that these big companies, exhibit their products with a
+&quot;common people&quot; language, showing images of common people, doing
+ordinary things.
+
+Why? because common people is the people who need to be convinced.
+Common people have doubts, maybe they are a little scare about if the
+hit a key and a program is erased.
+
+People like all of you and me, know what we want and what we need
+(talking about the OS and software and hardware).
+
+I know that I can mount a small server with an ordinary Win XP, if I
+put in it the right software. The same XP that Microsoft &quot;sell&quot; to
+ordinary people with nice images of the family watching Toy Story in
+the notebook.
+
+I (and all of you) don't need that a company mounting images of a geek
+mounting a server with Gentoo. Because we are not ordinary users. We
+need something, we go to Google, we go to forums, we read a lot, we
+pick the software we need, we set it up, and we mount whatever satisfy
+our need. We're self sufficient. We are &quot;special&quot;.
+
+We won't use Mageia because the marketing team convince us. We are
+here to build it from the very base.
+
+Ordinary people must be convinced by us (or by our marketing team)
+that Mageia is easy. That Mageia will not bite them. That they will
+watch their movies, talk with their IM friends, listen music, create
+their documents, without open a console and type &quot;dark&quot; commands that
+they can't understand.
+
+We must make &quot;common people&quot; feel comfortable in Mageia. They must
+feel joy using their computers with Mageia. To use Mageia must be easy
+and pleasurable work/play/hand around with Mageia.
+
+Of course, the console will be there for &quot;power users&quot;. Packages to
+mount a servers will also be there too. But you don't need to create a
+big marketing campaign for power users, because they know what is
+available, and how to install it and configure. And if they don't,
+they will read and learn. Because that's our nature. As regular
+people's nature is &quot;I don't care how it works, I just want it working
+right and quick&quot;.
+
+So, I'm sorry but I agree with the people who want to target this
+&quot;ordinary people&quot;. Because I don't think that making Mageia easier and
+friendly hurt or damage advanced users. Linux will be always powerful,
+with the right packages. And any advanced user can make &quot;urpmi
+my-advanced-packages&quot; whenever he/she needs.
+
+We need to attract more non-linux users. Because if all Linux distros
+have 1% of the market, and we attract just users from other distros,
+you only change the way that 1% is distributed.
+
+My respect to marketing team.
+
+Regards.

+I agree with most everything said
+
+However i must add we should not forget the people to whose i count myself:
+Between geek and non computer literate, who use the system for work, no
+games, no fancy, but reliability, repairability, and ease of use is
+essential.
+
+Mandriva is perfect for us: easy to set up, powerful and working configuration
+tools... well you know it all.
+There are actually appearing a range of Linux tech software, here is what i
+plan to soon add in my electronic workshop:: <A HREF="http://www.saleae.com/home/,">http://www.saleae.com/home/,</A>
+<A HREF="http://spec.de/.">http://spec.de/.</A> I do almost all work in Linux and soon all. Usability and
+reliability is what matters for us and Mandriva has it, and so will Mageia,
+and it should be marketed like this for this segment.
+
+
+ There may be many segments
+
+A. The masses who only want &quot;a computer&quot;
+
+B. Serious users that want reliable system and *can* do some system
+configuration but no not want to waste too much time on it. System is a work
+house, and the user is willing to pay some monetary support, i.e
+subscription.
+
+C. geeks that want to tweak whatever. May want to participate in development.
+
+D. Server users: combination of B&amp;C
+
+E. Broad installations in schools and offices: combination of A &amp; B
+
+F. Game section is special, together with audio/video editing, streaming,
+creation etc. Maybe create someting like artistx, possibly by task-gaming,
+task-videoedit etc package(s).
+
+
+ We need to find some directions for development
+
+For A: broad hardware support, flash live system, good installers, short
+beautiful manual/guide
+
+For B: Keep on building on drak tools, maintain a wealthy forum and wiki.
+
+For C: Good system documentation, source code handling, bugzilla, developer
+channels, developer apprentice guidance
+
+
+Yes i think we can just head on development from where we forked, but work on
+branding, marketing, documentation, communication :)
+
+Just make sure we technically actually only have one system that is easily
+configurable by i.e task-packages! (the packages can not only change what
+programs are installed, but also the visual appearance)

+<PRE>&gt;<i> 2010/10/15 Gamaliel Lamboy Rodr&#237;guez &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">gamalamboy at gmail.com</A>&gt;:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Therefore, the branding for
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; them cannot possibly insert Linux or other technical details; it is more
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; of a simplified picture of what Free Software is and how we insert
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; ourselves into that. This is seen in our Core Values, where the main
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; focus is showing people that we are a Community, not a corporation, and
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; that we care about our users. On the other side we have the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; intermediate-to-advanced Linux users, which CAN and/or DO choose a Linux
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; OS and FOSS Technologies. To these users we can introduce a branding
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; that includes our special characteristics in the Linux world and the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; advantages of using our development branch, etc. But Graham's point
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; still stands, that we need to define these target markets more fully so
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; we can better assess the Mageia reputation in each of them.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> My opinion is from my POV: I'm a home user, FLOSS enthusiast, curious,
+</I>&gt;<i> I love computers, love to read, love to learn, love to help in forums,
+</I>&gt;<i> but in the end, I'm just a regular-guy-not-developer. I work in
+</I>&gt;<i> nothing related with computers, just an administrative employee. I'm a
+</I>&gt;<i> dad, I'm a husband.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Said this, I start.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> What I see when I navigate Internet is this:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/">http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://www.apple.com/macosx/refinements/">http://www.apple.com/macosx/refinements/</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://www.apple.com/macosx/what-is-macosx/">http://www.apple.com/macosx/what-is-macosx/</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/discover">http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/discover</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features">http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> These are examples of the way other big companies &quot;sell&quot; their
+</I>&gt;<i> products. They keep it simple. They describe it with simplicity,
+</I>&gt;<i> non-technical language. Obviously, they are targeting people that know
+</I>&gt;<i> very little about computers, OS, software.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Images are almost always showing mom+dad+kids (or teens) all together,
+</I>&gt;<i> around the notebook, laughing, enjoying. Or teenagers with their
+</I>&gt;<i> backpacks, and skates, cool clothes, doing things like chat, listening
+</I>&gt;<i> music, watching a video, facebook, etc.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> My point is that these big companies, exhibit their products with a
+</I>&gt;<i> &quot;common people&quot; language, showing images of common people, doing
+</I>&gt;<i> ordinary things.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Why? because common people is the people who need to be convinced.
+</I>&gt;<i> Common people have doubts, maybe they are a little scare about if the
+</I>&gt;<i> hit a key and a program is erased.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> People like all of you and me, know what we want and what we need
+</I>&gt;<i> (talking about the OS and software and hardware).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I know that I can mount a small server with an ordinary Win XP, if I
+</I>&gt;<i> put in it the right software. The same XP that Microsoft &quot;sell&quot; to
+</I>&gt;<i> ordinary people with nice images of the family watching Toy Story in
+</I>&gt;<i> the notebook.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I (and all of you) don't need that a company mounting images of a geek
+</I>&gt;<i> mounting a server with Gentoo. Because we are not ordinary users. We
+</I>&gt;<i> need something, we go to Google, we go to forums, we read a lot, we
+</I>&gt;<i> pick the software we need, we set it up, and we mount whatever satisfy
+</I>&gt;<i> our need. We're self sufficient. We are &quot;special&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> We won't use Mageia because the marketing team convince us. We are
+</I>&gt;<i> here to build it from the very base.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Ordinary people must be convinced by us (or by our marketing team)
+</I>&gt;<i> that Mageia is easy. That Mageia will not bite them. That they will
+</I>&gt;<i> watch their movies, talk with their IM friends, listen music, create
+</I>&gt;<i> their documents, without open a console and type &quot;dark&quot; commands that
+</I>&gt;<i> they can't understand.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> We must make &quot;common people&quot; feel comfortable in Mageia. They must
+</I>&gt;<i> feel joy using their computers with Mageia. To use Mageia must be easy
+</I>&gt;<i> and pleasurable work/play/hand around with Mageia.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Of course, the console will be there for &quot;power users&quot;. Packages to
+</I>&gt;<i> mount a servers will also be there too. But you don't need to create a
+</I>&gt;<i> big marketing campaign for power users, because they know what is
+</I>&gt;<i> available, and how to install it and configure. And if they don't,
+</I>&gt;<i> they will read and learn. Because that's our nature. As regular
+</I>&gt;<i> people's nature is &quot;I don't care how it works, I just want it working
+</I>&gt;<i> right and quick&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So, I'm sorry but I agree with the people who want to target this
+</I>&gt;<i> &quot;ordinary people&quot;. Because I don't think that making Mageia easier and
+</I>&gt;<i> friendly hurt or damage advanced users. Linux will be always powerful,
+</I>&gt;<i> with the right packages. And any advanced user can make &quot;urpmi
+</I>&gt;<i> my-advanced-packages&quot; whenever he/she needs.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> We need to attract more non-linux users. Because if all Linux distros
+</I>&gt;<i> have 1% of the market, and we attract just users from other distros,
+</I>&gt;<i> you only change the way that 1% is distributed.
+</I>
++1
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> My respect to marketing team.
+</I>
+thanks : )
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Regards.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>

+Thanks for your note. You are absolutely correct.
+
+We are just in the planning stages of the marketing philosophy, so these
+discussions are important feedback for the Mageia marketing team. We are
+lurking the user/dev discussion groups and trying to pick up feedback as
+well as asking questions to the community to gauge community expectations.
+
+We have to keep in mind that everything has to keep in line with our
+values <A HREF="http://mageia.org/en/about/values/">http://mageia.org/en/about/values/</A> posted on the site.
+
+It is a community distro and everyone's opinion counts.
+
+Tell us what you feel. We need to hear your opinions.

+</I>&gt;<i> My point is that these big companies, exhibit their products with a

+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Why? because common people is the people who need to be convinced.
+</I>&gt;<i> Common people have doubts, maybe they are a little scare about if the
+</I>&gt;<i> hit a key and a program is erased.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> People like all of you and me, know what we want and what we need

+</I>&gt;<i> I know that I can mount a small server with an ordinary Win XP, if I

+</I>&gt;<i> ordinary people with nice images of the family watching Toy Story in
+</I>&gt;<i> the notebook.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I (and all of you) don't need that a company mounting images of a geek
+</I>&gt;<i> mounting a server with Gentoo. Because we are not ordinary users. We
+</I>&gt;<i> need something, we go to Google, we go to forums, we read a lot, we
+</I>&gt;<i> pick the software we need, we set it up, and we mount whatever satisfy
+</I>&gt;<i> our need. We're self sufficient. We are &quot;special&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> We won't use Mageia because the marketing team convince us. We are
+</I>&gt;<i> here to build it from the very base.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Ordinary people must be convinced by us (or by our marketing team)
+</I>&gt;<i> that Mageia is easy. That Mageia will not bite them. That they will
+</I>&gt;<i> watch their movies, talk with their IM friends, listen music, create
+</I>&gt;<i> their documents, without open a console and type &quot;dark&quot; commands that
+</I>&gt;<i> they can't understand.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> We must make &quot;common people&quot; feel comfortable in Mageia. They must
+</I>&gt;<i> feel joy using their computers with Mageia. To use Mageia must be easy
+</I>&gt;<i> and pleasurable work/play/hand around with Mageia.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Of course, the console will be there for &quot;power users&quot;. Packages to
+</I>&gt;<i> mount a servers will also be there too. But you don't need to create a
+</I>&gt;<i> big marketing campaign for power users, because they know what is
+</I>&gt;<i> available, and how to install it and configure. And if they don't,
+</I>&gt;<i> they will read and learn. Because that's our nature. As regular
+</I>&gt;<i> people's nature is &quot;I don't care how it works, I just want it working
+</I>&gt;<i> right and quick&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So, I'm sorry but I agree with the people who want to target this
+</I>&gt;<i> &quot;ordinary people&quot;. Because I don't think that making Mageia easier and
+</I>&gt;<i> friendly hurt or damage advanced users. Linux will be always powerful,
+</I>&gt;<i> with the right packages. And any advanced user can make &quot;urpmi
+</I>&gt;<i> my-advanced-packages&quot; whenever he/she needs.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> We need to attract more non-linux users. Because if all Linux distros
+</I>&gt;<i> have 1% of the market, and we attract just users from other distros,
+</I>&gt;<i> you only change the way that 1% is distributed.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+I agree with this POV, Our main goal must be capture as many as possible non-linux users, no cannibalize the same linux users from other distros.
+
+I think we need to do many things in new and different ways. We take risks, try things that have not been tested yet.
+
+What should we do? Whatever it takes! (According to our values)
+
+Ubuntu a few years ago was born with a fixed idea, at first everyone said that this would accomplish nothing. Over the years that distribution has become the most popular, despite all objections, has contributed like no other to increase knowledge and use of Linux. (Please before to reply against that read it well, personally I'm not promoting Ubuntu or it's way, I'm only write about facts)
+
+If we look back we see that the same happened with the Mac, and even further back in time to the PC itself did something similar.
+
+Recent history is full of examples: the Model T, the seat belt, Aspirin and of course Viagra, are some of them.
+
+As well as here, at the dev mail list there are a large thread about changes. IMHO it is happen because inside the community there are thoughts on necessary new way.
+
+We are a fork from Mandriva, we aren't a clone. For this reason we are try to take the best of our &quot;mother&quot; and as the childes all over the world at any time, we want to improve our own way.
+
+Again IMHO our main goal should be increase the base of new users, and we must do into Mageia.
+
