+&gt;<i> What I mean is: the team that made Mageia 1 has done a great job - it is
+</I>&gt;<i> evident, that they are needed to play a similar leading role with
+</I>&gt;<i> Mageia2. Off-loading all (most) work concerned with keeping Mageia1 in
+</I>&gt;<i> shape to maintainers is the evident solution to keep their load within
+</I>&gt;<i> limits - another aspect why having maintainers is essential (I assume
+</I>&gt;<i> that, at present, if an essential package is broken and has no
+</I>&gt;<i> maintainer, the developers play a role as a last ressort).
+</I>
+imho, that's not exactly how things go.
+
+you have to think that people who made mageia 1 (with regards to packaging)
+are the ones who are now maintainer of a lot of programs, and maintaining
+means fixing all the bugs reports of mageia1 AND if they want to, releasing new
+versions in cauldron.
+
+fixing bug reports in mageia1 has priority, because usually a while before
+freeze is coming, there's a quick jump of alot of maintainers releasing their
+newest version so that it gets into mageia2.
+
+you have to keep in mind that Cauldron is exactly what it says, a development
+version, not one to be used by users (normally), cauldron is not the version
+that needs support. only increasingly when mageia2 release schedule comes
+nearer is when stableness is required in cauldron. (the time inbetween also
+has to be used to make features and sadly those features are mostly being done
+by the same people who maintain packages.)
+
+So each packagers/developer has to manage their time wisely between
+implementing the features that they have promised to do (the exact featurelist
+is fixed a while ago), and also fixing old bugs and IF they have the time, fixing
+bugs in cauldron.
+
+as such, we need more maintainers, but they have to be mentored, so it always
+takes a while.
