To make it clearer, if the user wants to install oo-base at a later
point with the currend Mdv model he would have to download 20MB if there
has been no security updates since release, or 70MB if there has been a
security update in the meantime.

I saw that suggestion from somebody (in a post to this or the
mageia-discuss list). Mandriva officially supports both KDE and Gnome,
to my understanding.

No, konqueror is still useful as a file manager (some users don't like
dolphin for some reason), also as a man pages viewer. Also it shares
some code with dolphin (some stuff/features don't work in dolphin if
konqueror isn't installed).
I usually use Konqueror as my ftp agent. It works flaw

Hi all.
At this time, there is a survey asking to the blogdrake's community
what kind of release cycle they prefer. This survey will be active
until the weekend and I think this could be an acceptable look about
community preferences.

Personally as a future Mageia packager I will try to concentrate on making

will be helping to make Mageia in practice a sort of 'light' rolling
