<PRE>Hi,
I'm messing about with this list of yours, Juergen, on the marcomm
sandbox - getting something together for the announcement.
Need help, folks - this is a situation where many eyes would be
really handy!
Cheers,
><i> Evidently, I had thought about some items to go into such a list:
</I>><i> there is a short list at the end of this message - far from
</I>><i> exhaustive and a very personal view, seen from the kind of user I
</I>><i> represent.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> My items do not cover the ground, but the list should be kept
</I>><i> short: there is need to consider arguments to attract canditate
</I>><i> users coming from windows, maybe also the "hugging" aspect proposed
</I>><i> by Romain, but I do not feel competetent in that domain. Arguments
</I>><i> should fit into some kind of a "template".
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I like the examples of graphical competence that pop up everywhere
</I>><i> in Mageia: if such a list is really implemented and is short, how
</I>><i> about adding a kind of line-drawing sketch to the presentation of
</I>><i> each argument (style: the bug that appears/appeared during the
</I>><i> install sequence) - that might help to take away the taste of "oh,
</I>><i> self-promotion" and make people laugh.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Apropos hugging aspect: I do not think that such a list should
</I>><i> primarily address emotional aspects, it should address the
</I>><i> potential user who - and that is at the intellectual level -
</I>><i> realizes that there are alternatives, and starts scratching his
</I>><i> head.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> --------------
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Quality:
</I>><i> Mageia is promising to be as solid and perfect as Mandriva at the
</I>><i> best of its times (Mandriva heritage)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Language support:
</I>><i> Mageia wants to provide a box that perfectly "speaks" many
</I>><i> languages - its structure and its anchor in the user community have
</I>><i> already now produced excellent results (Mandriva heritage +
</I>><i> enhancement)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Multi-profile support:
</I>><i> Mageia offers and maintains application that address the needs of a
</I>><i> large variety of user communities - with applications ranging from
</I>><i> game-playing and music-listening to scientific and engineering
</I>><i> applications (Mandriva heritage)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Leading-edge / stability equilibrium:
</I>><i> <text needed to go in here - delicate, it touches the rolling
</I>><i> release
</I>><i> discussion>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> User <-> maintainer interaction:
</I>><i> <text needed to go in here> (Mageia community concept)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Friendly human side: (quoting Romain)
</I>><i> <text needed to go in here>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Sorry to be so late with my reply - I had not created a filter for
</I>><i> mageia-marketing and thunderbird had put away all your messages as
</I>><i> junk (- _______________________________________________
