> Okay, - What is the governance of this project ?
+
+Provisional governance of the project is in the hands of Mandriva ex-employees
+
+
+> I believe that the old worker of Mandriva are the most activs. But it is not
+> very false when person like Mahteus (or me), are feeling a problem.
+
+Which problems?????
+
+
+
+> I don't doubt that the governance of the project is not null ... But we,
+> others of "who maintain the list", we don't see anything.
+
+You don't see because you don't want to. I follow all Mageia MLs and
+read Romain's and Anne's mails. Just because they don't write every 20
+minutes it means that they are playing in the beach.
+
+
+> Who is actually the captain, or most contributers ?
+
+There's no captain yet. That's why you must put your name in the wiki.
+Then, with people who joined in the wiki, teams will be formed.
+
+
+
+> Who is the team who decide the rules like : to put TXT format and not HTML
+> format in the mail of the list ? Or to speak only in english ? Or to do only
+> RPM and not DEB ? This 3 late days, I have only seen this kind of movement.
+
+It's just common sense. HTML mails are "heavier" that plain text. You
+don't need lot of emoticons crap to make your point here.
+
+
+> So, I think I (and a lot of others) will take more confidence in this
+> project if certain person said what they do.
+
+They do it. But maybe you can make it better and create a whole
+foundation in 24 hours.
+
+
+> We have a wiki for write what each can do. But we have nothing for
+> "institute" what will be done, when, and who do what ?
+
+As they said in ML, Wiki is just provisional for people who wants to
+join Mageia.
+
+
+> Just a first question : when and where will be done the first meeting of the
+> foundation in France ? I want participate, I will take a day of holidays in
+> my company for the creation and write of the statuts of this foundation.
+> But, it seems that someone is back the decision, and now, actually, I don't
+> see who (or which group).
+
+OK, maybe I'm being a little reiterative but, what foundation?????
+They are building it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+
+
+> Mageia will not survive if you make the sames mistake of the last managers
+> of Mandriva. For me it was : decision in dark and no visibility to the
+> community.
+> This community is not only maked from hard-coders for fun ... but also
+> people not exclusively technicians but can bring a lot to a community (which
+> I also learned to make ABAP / java / Ada95 10 years ago, but now, I am no
+> more exactly in this job ... and can give a little part of me).
+
+Congratulations for your skills, but you should stop writing FUD
+because you are not helping much. And you are creating panic between
+newcomers. You don't affect me, but many newcomers will think that
+this is "mafia" and mageia wants their money, and meetings are in dark
+basements.
+
+Stop FUDing, PLEASE!!!!!
