+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &quot;I&#8217;m curious about what stance Mageia will take on this though, I&#8217;m
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> certainly hoping they will adopt our work and allow for us to help them

+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> changes in just perl-URPM done recently during rpm5 rewrite, and even more
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> so those planned when rpm5 upgrade situtation settles..&quot;
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> There are also other goodies in the middle link i hope we can coopreate
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> with them on.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> well, i'm not adverse to cooperation, but RPM5 is in my opinion FAR too
+</I>&gt;<i> unstable to be used for use on our first release.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I would say, let mandriva find the bugs first and let it give rpm5 a testrun
+</I>&gt;<i> with their users; by the time we hit our second release, we will have a for
+</I>&gt;<i> sure stable version of it.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>I've been following RPM5 (and the associated urpm4) on cooker for a
+while now ...
+All 3 stories come from the person integrating rpm5 into Mandriva - he
+was recently hired to do just that, with full support of management.
+To me it looks like rpm5 itself won't be the big problem - rather
+changing the urpmi tools and adapting the build system to work with it.
+Not sure which way Mageia should go at first, but the newer versions of
+their tools will be based on rpm5.
+It was interesting how cooker wasn't warned of the changes - suddenly
+many developers were left unable to do any anything, until Per fixed the
+bugs he created. And then they learned about the planned switch.
+A perfect example of how NOT to do things :)
+
+It is good that Per is open to cooperation - his experiences will be a
+big asset when we do follow suit - which I expect we will, sooner or later.
+Maarten, have you taken a close look at it ?
