Maybe you don't realise it, but the momentum would be quickly lost if
you start to pollute the original objectives with commercial aims, a
large part of the enthusiasm is BECAUSE Mageia is non-profit.
I would not contribute to Mageia (neither money nor time) if it becomes
for-profit and I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one.
I really hope that the foundation charta makes this very clear (the
non-profit scope) else it would cause a lot of momentum to evaporate.
Again, Debian or the Linux kernel project are IMHO the examples to
follow, nothing else.
