hi,
This "story" begins to be quite stupid with the lack of communication of
mandriva and the quite bad explanation François Bancilhon gave. I fact,
you should not make your mind only with what was revealed in various
French and international website or forum and it is very interesting to
know what mandriva contributors (and not only employees) think/say: Gael
Duval's work for mandriva was now very tiny and his lay out was logical
with the recent bad financial results of the company. I just wanted to
do this clarification because it's finally boring the read comments from
people that don't really know what is happening.
Cheers
Scara

Usually this is a sign that the financial and/or marketing people have
wrested control of the company from the techie founder(s). Often a bad sign
for the long term health of the company and its products, though not always
(e.g. in the case where the founders are mismanaging things, sometimes it
helps).
Damn, I have been here since the 6.X days and hate to see this happen. I sub'd
to ULTEO and will watch that but I guess PCLINUXOS it is, or SUSE not sure
just now. My VIP membership only has 4 months left unless they cancel it.
