And as the page says, Mageia can still refuse the solution. For example: > someone wants > Cinnamon to work on Mageia and someone else ports it.

If that thing brings a mess into Mageia, we will see bug reports in bugzilla and lot of time lost by Mageia bug-triagers, devs, packagers, before discovering that is not a Mageia problem but that this stuff brought some shit ! We suffer of lack of time... and this will consume more time from voluntary contributors to repair something badly done by someone that was paid for it !
