I think Mageia should be marketed/presented on the basis of its tools
and hardware recognition. It lends itself to easy configuration and
administration with the Mageia Control Center and its many excellent
individual tools, like the partitioner, so is newbie friendly, but is
also power user and system controller friendly, and person who wants
to learn computers friendly, if you want to use cli. We should talk
about our assets and explain what individuals/groups those assets might
be relevant to. Mandriva's/Mageia's unique set of tools is what
differentiate's it/them from other distros.
