Mandriva Linux Assembly

Thanks to crevette and vuntz, my new hackergotchi is now Planet GNOME compliant and available on Planet GNOME. Now, chances are higher people recognized me at FOSDEM tomorrow or in future events ;)

Mandriva Linux Assembly
I'm really happy Mandriva announced this week Mandriva Linux Assembly launch, which will formalize Mandriva (the company) relationships with Mandriva Linux community (both users and contributors). We didn't feel this kind of liaison comitee was needed in the past probably because Cooker (where Mandriva Linux is developped) has always been extremely opened since its creation in 1999, as well as community feedback coming from forums or mailing lists but things changed and we are not deaf ;)

Of course, if you want to discuss about the new assembly at FOSDEM, join us at Mandriva booth. And you'll be able to see a preview on Mandriva speedboot feature too (I'll talk about it more in-depth next week).

  1. ej, I was impressed by the speedboot feature on the netbooks you guys had over there ;-)

    I'ts unfortunate KDE 4 crashed so much, I guess Mandriva isn't ready for the Future yet :(

  2. Well, if I remember correctly, you were the one who enabled various compiz like features in KDE4 and then, it started to crash. And I'd like to remind you it was development distribution (Cooker), so it doesn't represent the stability of KDE nor the one of the stable distribution.
