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.
