<PRE>2010/9/29 Per &#216;yvind Karlsen &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">peroyvind at mandriva.org</A>&gt;:
&gt;<i> Michael has already corrected you on this, Mandriva most certainly
</I>&gt;<i> didn't want to see Niemeyer leaving.. :/
</I>
This is at least debatable.
When Mandriva acquired Conectiva it was said that smart will be
supported and promoted on equal terms as urpmi/rpmdrake. That's what
Ga&#235;l Duval wrote in an interview right after the acquisition when he
still talked as representative of the company.

This turned out to be not the case. Smart was neglected by Mandriva
documentation and promotion, All Mandriva was talking about was
urpmi/rpmdrake - so Niemeyer left because he &quot;did not see any future
with Mandriva and is looking for new challenges&quot; (as he was cited when
he left).
No, Mandriva did not fire him but IMHO and according to my
informations they did everything to make him go.

Of course this does not help with the topic of this thread, just to
correct this bit of information.
