I think so, too. And it was said a number of times. Mageia is not created to
work against Mandriva. So why should we try to highjack packages? What do we
win by this? I think we would only loose some credibility in the international
OpenSource community.

OMG!
As user I wouldn't think you want to kill/destroy/blow up/whatever evil you may imagine to do to Mandriva.
You just try to get the best for Mageia's users. Although the cutting edge is not he best. I wish to have the newest possible (read stable) version built in my distro.
Let's not be negative and hostile in thinking.
Yes, it is possible if Mageia is better than Mandriva to harm Mandriva... Will you ever be one step back just not to harm it?
Actually, if Mageia will contribute to some important component as KDE is, this will help all the distros around, including Mandriva. I'm sure they will upgrade some component due to their plan, so it is not anybody's fault if they decide to remain behind (to a certain version).
