Now, they have no job, so a lot of time, and they would like to continue this adventure. I can understand it. <br>I have some questions about that : <br> - Is it legal for you, have you some right to work in the same field than your previous employer ? Lot of contract have a clause to forbid that. It would be a very bad news if mandriva asked some question about that and stop the project.<br> - Have you some financial plan to survive. Now you have maybe some money from government, and again a lot of time, but if you find a job, how many time would you take for the distro. <br> - People seems to think that Mageia would never have employees, is that true ? Could you imagine to create a structure and month after month, hire the main contributors to prevent Mageia to be out of developer soon ?<br> - You seems to think that it will be a free distro, but do you plan for some cashable services ? If a company ask your support, would you refuse and ask them to go to mandriva, or do you want to create something for that ?<br><br>Are you really motivated to do the same job than before, but without being paid ? Are you ok to give this work for free to your previous employer(it's GPL...)<br><br>My questions are most about money, I know that is a subject taht people love to forget, but I'm sure that it's a very important part when you want to create a budget, and I didn't get any information about that.<br><br>By the way, a forum would be very nice to prevent our mailbox from quick die :-)<br><br>Thank you<br>Pierre<br> </body> +</html>
