[Mageia-discuss] GUI tools

+Lawrence, I can't speak for the devs but my understanding is that Mageia 
+will keep everything that makes Mandriva unique and great, which IMHO 
+means more than anything else urpmi and the draktools.
+
+If Mageia starts to change these things then it will quickly alienate 
+many users. Continuity is crucial to take over the Mandriva userbase.
