Hi there

Here is a second mail from Mr.Crozet we just received:

In response to my email that day, I inform you that the Supervisory 
Board adopted the principle of moving the development of the 
distribution to an external entity to Mandriva SA. The legal form, 
location and other details have not yet been addressed but should be 
within a few weeks.

In this context, I wish to associate, to the extent that you are 
interested in a working group. It will be responsible for defining the 
structure, function and manner of such entity. I expect a participation 
as large as possible of the Mandriva Linux "ecosystem" (I do not like 
that label), namely representatives of addition of Mandriva SA, Rosa, 
Unity Linux, and some of the emblematic figures of French free software.

Can you tell me quickly if you are interested in participating in this 
working group?

Feel free to call me to discuss.
---------------------------------------------

So we have to answer quite quickly and together. What I (personally) 
think about this:
- Mageia should not join that work group because we do have defined our 
own governance model and what is proposed here would change it
- Mageia is an independant project and must stay as it
- Having a clear position now will show we are ok to have mdv in 
ecosystem but it will not change our principles

WDYT ? Mdv official announcement is planned for tomorrow

Cheers
