Hi,

i'd like to mention that in our project.openmandriva.org is good place to
get some information.

Imho main goals:

1. Instaler
a. written in Qt5
b. should work in CLI mode
c. should allow to configure partitions, lvm, RAIDS, etc.
d. support for EFI
e. support for multiple squashfs(other fs) images to install

2. Support OMV in zypper
a. adapt Openmandriva to zypper
b. add support for hdlists read/generate
c. more to come.

Without above two cruical point, OpenMandriva Lx as a distribution will not
go further in any distant journey. Simply these so importan that blocks
development.

Other are not so important, as drakx is mostly not used at all for
configuration, like 90% of stuff can be done from KDE.
