80    
81     If the very news we announce is "we're not Fedora/Redhat", people will
82     associate this to us anyway (because asking immediately "why not?").
83    
84     What I mean is that we have to be super clear and short about what the
85     news will be, from our side; and it must be a single message, so
86     people can remember it for what it is (and not for what it's not).
87     - "Welcome, Mandriva, seriously"
88     - "Mandriva joins Mageia for its server product"
89     - "Mandriva uses Mageia for its server product" - we don't have a
90     different name for the project and for the product (that would have
91     been more clear to say that Mandriva was going to use and customize X
92     as a platform for their server, while just being a contributor to
93     project Y, whose governance is left unchanged).
94     - "Mageia will stay as it is, no change to governance"
95     - "A new Mageia-based/derivative corporate product on its way"
96    
97     Or, we can be super neutral, like saying: "cool, there's a new company
98     using our technology for its products".
99    
100     And yes, we need to prepare the Q/A session after, but I don't think
101     we should include it in the very release, if the release is short and
102     clear enough.
103    
104     We must be especially careful, because there's a second announcement
105     pending from Mandriva (and which may be announced first actually,
106     tomorrow - Anne will send another mail about it), that's the
107     foundation of their own Mandriva Linux community entity (likely a
108     foundation, or so they say) and we will have to react to it as well
109     and explain why (and this one will need to have a short as well title,
110     plus a clear, limited rationale).
111    
112     And depending on the timing, people may confuse the two announcements
113     - best for us, I believe, would be that they announce their foundation
114     first.
115    
116     Let's not forget the bottom line of all this, that's utterly positive
117     in my view:
118     - Mandriva is going to use Mageia as a technology platform;
119     - we're going to have to think, discuss and take a stance in regard
120     of their foundation project.
