</I>><i> Hello
</I>><i>
</I>><i> My question is quite simple.
</I>><i> In the list of contributors, we can see a lot of former mandriva employee
</I>><i> name.
</I>><i> They were employed by mandriva(or edge it) to create a distro. Now, they
</I>><i> have no job, so a lot of time, and they would like to continue this
</I>><i> adventure. I can understand it.
</I>><i> I have some questions about that :
</I>><i> - Is it legal for you, have you some right to work in the same field than
</I>><i> your previous employer ? Lot of contract have a clause to forbid that. It
</I>><i> would be a very bad news if mandriva asked some question about that and
</I>><i> stop the project.
</I>><i> - Have you some financial plan to survive. Now you have maybe some money
</I>><i> from government, and again a lot of time, but if you find a job, how many
</I>><i> time would you take for the distro.
</I>><i> - People seems to think that Mageia would never have employees, is that
</I>><i> true ? Could you imagine to create a structure and month after month,
</I>><i> hire the main contributors to prevent Mageia to be out of developer soon
</I>><i> ?
</I>><i> - You seems to think that it will be a free distro, but do you plan for
</I>><i> some cashable services ? If a company ask your support, would you refuse
</I>><i> and ask them to go to mandriva, or do you want to create something for
</I>><i> that ?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Are you really motivated to do the same job than before, but without being
</I>><i> paid ? Are you ok to give this work for free to your previous
</I>><i> employer(it's GPL...)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> My questions are most about money, I know that is a subject that people
</I>><i> love to forget, but I'm sure that it's a very important part when you want
</I>><i> to create a budget, and I didn't get any information about that.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> By the way, a forum would be very nice to prevent our mailbox from quick
</I>><i> die :-)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Thank you
</I>><i> Pierre
</I>><i>
