 Open Letter To Mandrakesoft, Quality of Mandrakelinux products | Linux Gazette
As users and often sales promoters of Mandrakelinux products, we are asking ourselves some questions on Mandrakesoft's strategy regarding its products.
The development model based on Cooker is efficient but we think the time is too short between the split of Cooker's branch and the release of Community versions.
We can understand that the development of free softwares is fast and that you want to be at the top of this progress, but being so close of new versions of softwares is having damaging effects to the final quality.

Gentoo Linux on AMD64), Mandrakelinux 10.1 for X86-64 is not readily available for download, and even the Silver-level members of Mandrakeclub were only given access to the ISO images some 6 weeks after the official release on November 10th, 2004.

Mandrakelinux 10.1 X86-64 is not a bad product, but it is marred by lack of polish and some unnecessary commercial tricks.
