One would be the current community version to give it a name and the
other one would be the long term release, like the corporate
desktop/server of Mandriva.

</I>
That's what backports are for, no need for a &quot;light rolling distro&quot;,
just contribute and help doing the backports for different Mageia
versions if you really want them. That's what I do and it was one of
the main reasons to become a contrib packager :)
