Re:What do you think of the community/official spl

Someone in the community can actually provide updated packages for the community releases. Mandrake could then link to them for those wanting to go for community release updates past the 6 month period. As long as the official release is all open source, I don't see an issue here. An 18 month release schedule on the official release is good for drivers and more maturity. This would free up Mandrake resources to offer better support for the official releases and to be able to have a long support timframe.
