<PRE>Hi there,

Checking it out and thinking about it while doing some Web stuff.
This list is cool and can be put in the release pages but it does not
exactly, precisely cover this question: what discrete stuff is
different with this Mageia 1 distribution? (as in: what's in it that
there's not in an other distribution?); technical/tool/experience.
If the answer is: nothing, then, what is different with the project?
Or still why chooose it? (that can be the Mageia promise, but that's
more difficult to push). It's not to have only these exclusive bits
showing up on the product page; but it's to have them nonetheless +
all the rest.

Not sure I see/understand this. Have a sketch/example?

</I>
Yep, definitely. That's the: multiplicity/difference is good, because
it encourages exploration and learning; so embrace it.
