I totally agree with both Juan Luis Baptiste and Buchan Milne.

No rolling release!

This is just a fancy word.

But then, the &quot;goals&quot; of &quot;rolling release&quot; are already accomplished with the 
current Mandriva system, and I hope Mageia will keep this functionality:

backports

Probably, what needs to happen is to publicize more backports for 
advanced/cutting edge/rolling users instead of changing something that is 
not broken.

Salut,
Sinner
