   I've been watching Mageia closely.  I last installed Mandriva when   
   they'd gone to all that effort to develop Matisse, the windowmanager.   
   It seemed so interesting and I wanted to support a company that was   
   focused on innovating.   
      
   This distro family sure has undergone a lot of changes, re-changes, and   
   drama.  I still recall even Mandrake fondly, and that's coming from a   
   SUSE user that goes all the way back to the year 2000.
