There may be more consequences / preparation than ensuring our web content is
fully independant.
We may need to consider:
1)Prepare for upgrading our servers from Mandiva 2010.x to Mageia (1?).
However, I know for a fact that some packages we have on them are not
available in Mageia yet.
2)Ensuring we are ready for users who are still on Mandriva to migrate to
Mageia. IMHO, this should mean:
-Backports media resolved
-Highlighting documentation on upgrading / switching (e.g. downgrading from
Mandriva 2011 to Mageia 1, even if it is by exporting package leaf list and
backing up /etc, /usr/local/ etc. and re-install keeping /home) such as
<A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/en/1/migrate/">http://www.mageia.org/en/1/migrate/</A> on the Wiki and website/blog post
-Forum section dedicated to assisting users migrating?
-Blog post prepared, something that commenters on various news sites can point
to in replies?
-Possibly considering contacting large mirror sites (e.g. mirrors.kernel.org)
who currently mirror Mandriva, but not Mageia?
-A concerted effort to start producing comprehensive documentation, as soon we
may not be able to point users to online copies of Mandriva documentation
(I personally need to upgrade 3 of my machines and a few machines of
friends/family/colleagues)

Buchan
