  The best cooperation would be community involved. For example, some
organization makes use of OpenMandriva for projects and/or servers.
Then, they want to make sure certain package niches are updated,
security issues are handled, etc. That is, we offer training for
possibly new packagers and translators, and in exchange, they
have packages updated and/or tested to fulfil their needs, without
the need of third party repositories.

  Commercial contracts would be better done with Rosa or Mandriva. And
choosing one that would benefit OpenMandriva of course, e.g. would
help Rosa and Mandriva invest more in OpenMandriva.
