</I>Yes, I would also prefer this model. There is a legal issue with it
though. In order for a consultant to provide support to a third party,
the distribution artwork and other utilities must be free for use and
distribution to third parties. So the use of the GPL3 is not allowed
and trademarked artwork must be explicitly given away.
In short, Mageia would need a license similar to the Scientific Linux
distribution: <A HREF="https://www.scientificlinux.org/documentation/faq/legal">https://www.scientificlinux.org/documentation/faq/legal</A>
