That is the problem with Mandrake now!
"Community" is not a term that is used there now unfortunately, but "The Co=
mmunity" is what gave Mandrake et al the start to go off and build a produc=
t on.
For many years as a company Mandrake released the products back to the comm=
unity  so we could test and use it, with the assumption that we gave feedba=
ck in order so you could improve the products for sale.
Obviously the distribution of MNF was changed along with management and thi=
s is the result.
MNF Security Maillist was a very active place up until the changes were mad=
e and the feedback given to mandrake allowed you to change ands improve the=
 product to the level that it achieved. There used to 40 - 50 posts every d=
ay and now there are none:-(

Has there been any updates / changes / improvement to MNF in the last 6 mon=
ths? I doubt it but would never know as any info about it is buried somewhe=
re on the website and I don't have time to go looking. That is why I subscr=
ibet to this list in the first place.

Congrats Mandriva! another wonderful product Killed off.

See ya!
Ken Poole
