It was Mandriva that made the promise. (daouda-ZvoaMqYRm2BWk0Htik3J/[email protected] posted this on =
07/07/05)

I have moved on, but I'm also going to keep reminding everyone that Mandriv=
a cannot be trusted and will keep doing so until they keep their word. It's=
 not that I want the iso anymore, I'll never use it. They need to learn tha=
t they cannot say one thing and then do another. Notice that nobody from Ma=
ndriva has said anything like ...sorry, we changed our minds and this is wh=
at we have decided... or ...what I intended to say is... It was simply Scre=
w you!

I'm not going to back off. Mandriva is not allowed to change their minds no=
w either.

No, this isn't a flame list. And I signed up for the same reasons you did. =
But this is also were people will come when they are trying to decide if th=
is product is for them. I hope my posts will help them make up their mind. =
Mandriva does not deserve any new customers.

Of course I purchase products I can support. Did it with MNF, got burned. O=
thers can learn from my mistake.

Personally I'm tired of the Mandriva bashing and just the bad attitudes in
general.  I guess if you don't like it, then it's more than fine to post
your disapproval, but this is getting out of hand.  I originally subscribed
to this list to help and get help regarding MNF2 and up until the recent iso
problem, the list was running well and on topic.

Tell me this, by posting "Mandriva's word cannot be trusted" over and over,
how is that helping this list?  We read it the first time and I guess if you
don't agree with it, and you obviously don't and will not even be using MNF,
then by all means unsubscribe.  This isn't a flame list.  Also, it isn't
Mandriva that promised to release it for free, it was Mandrake.  When one
company buys another, expect promises to be dropped.  It's life, move on.

I personally am disappointed in with the entire roll out and the forced
release through a "vip" kind-of solution.  I would much rather have had the
Mandrake promise, but I'll deal with it as I see fit instead of ranting on
and on to an email list.

And by all means it's something you can support...  BUY IT.

Jim

Should not matter, it's not what was promised.

I contributed to the "project" several ways. Bugzilla #12034 was my latest,
and some of my customers bought MNF because I recommended it. If that's not
contributing to the project, what is?
But what gets my goat is that I put my reputation on the line by
recommending it. Because I was able to download the MNF8.2 iso and
test/evaluate/learn it I was able to recommend it. My customers wanted to be
sure this was something I could support, not some company in a far off time
zone.

But I'm happy to report that my customers have also taken my recommendation
and are dumping it. There will be no further money from my customers to
Mandriva. By the end of next week, all MNF installs will be replaced.

Said it before. Qill say it again. And will keep saying it! Mandriva's word
cannot be trusted!

Probably Florin has a list with people with valuable contributions.

I would like to be also in the list, who doesn t? But obviously I didn t
qualify for it. :(
