Hello everyone,

I read the "Summer of Code" projects with great interest and there has also been discussion about replacing "urpm" with "zypper" from openSUSE. Bedo's arguments for replacing urpmi made a lot of sense but one thing I am a bit concerned about is that Mandriva SA offers products based on Mageia technology and uses Mageia as a base for their products.

Mandriva SA offers an upgrade warranty for the Mandriva Business Server, see http://serviceplace.mandriva.com for details and if we replace the package management solution, this gives Mandriva SA one further reason NOT to pick OpenMandriva to build their technology on and I think it would be a shame losing Mandriva SA as a partner.

These are some concerns that I have. What are yours thoughts on this?

Have a good week,


Maik "tapwag" Wagner
