</I>&gt;&gt;<i> I think that's highly unlikely. &#160;No volunteer-driven Linux distro is
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> going to produce the type of turnkey commodity system Henri describes.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Volunteers are generally techies who value flexibility and choice; for a
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> distro to serve all the needs of its contributors (and why else would
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> they contribute ?), flexibility and choice are crucial.
</I>&gt;<i> +100
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I do think, there would be a lot of people, leaving Mageia if we should start
</I>&gt;<i> only concentrating on one desktop and so on.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> But: It's all OpenSource, everybody can take a Mageia release and create a
</I>&gt;<i> product out of it, he can sell...
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>
As with Mandriva Linux I expect community generated &quot;Editions&quot; being
compiled anyway (like XFCe, LXDE, special editions for netbooks,
tablets with touchscreens, etc.). So why not an edition for such Small
Business, nothing to say against somebody creating a business around
Mageia - as long as it is not the Mageia organisation itself.
