<PRE>><i> Hi there,
</I>><i>
</I>><i> just a quick note for information, in case it can be reused somehow.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Anne, Damien, Nicolas, Arnaud and me went to WebWorkersCamp in Paris
</I>><i> past Friday/Saturday, and I did a presentation about Mageia, in this
</I>><i> context (BarCamp, centered around new/edgy Web technologies).
</I>
can you share it with us?
><i>
</I>><i> Most of the audience was made of Web professionals and developers -
</I>><i> that did not hear about Mageia before (but were aware of the Linux
</I>><i> ecosystem in general).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Briefly (because the slides were in French and did not hold all of the
</I>><i> speech), that was done in three parts:
</I>><i>
</I>><i> 1. what is Mageia? and what happened since past September
</I>><i> - project/distribution/association
</I>><i> - #1 goal was to give control of the project to the community/governance
</I>><i> - history of 7 past months
</I>><i> - coming months (final release, brainstorming)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> [CUT]
</I>><i>
</I>><i> 3. (asking the audience) questions? what is missing for you in
</I>><i> existing OS stacks? what could be done? (Q/A part of the speech
</I>><i> actually); so questions were (from memory):
</I>><i> q. why yet another distribution? what will be success like for
</I>><i> you? what difference? when?
</I>><i> => explained the first need to move the project into different
</I>><i> hands/governance - and that fragmentation is not a bad thing, or
</I>><i> something to fear, as long as one differentiate enough from others, to
</I>><i> explore different paths - paths to actually be defined _after_ Mageia
</I>><i> 1, during the brainstorming session - so this answer was far from
</I>><i> convincing, of course.
</I>
the answer must be find in the marketing plan, this is one of the reason i want
to have it as soon as possible:
<A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=marketing-plan">http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=marketing-plan</A>
i'm starting to work on it, these days there will be many improvements (and
lot of thing to be discussed)
><i>
</I>><i> q. how many downloads/users have you already? and compared to Mandriva?
</I>><i> => very difficult figure to get in general; however, last
</I>><i> year, MDV could count about 3M users, all versions included; for
</I>><i> Mageia, we can't count users yet, our finale is not yet released - but
</I>><i> we've experienced about 60k downloads for alpha2/beta1 and we expect
</I>><i> to aim for 1M downloads for Mageia 1 over the year.
</I>
can't we discover how many users has mageia using the updates logs?
><i>
</I>><i> Here you are.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Cheers,
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Romain
