Mageia solidarity and scientific, education y more...

Idea low priority in the future without losing sight of the values ​​and strategy Mageia, it could take a look at some distributions of other categories such as education, Science and other specialties (Specialist in Distrowatch) on Distrowatch or other sites. Maybe you can get something useful (as some packages that could be included Mageia) and this comes from the idea of ​​a forum of your User information on distributions needed for a hospital.

About solidarity, good integration with Boinc, Grid Republic, and World Community Grid as universities could be interesting and beneficial to many. More thinking that Canonical and Ubuntu have done things solidarity as they say people have a humanitarian philosophy and won a lot with that and it is even a way to Marketing...

Thank you. Well my idea is for a future agreement or some collaboration with the University of California at Berkeley, Grid Republic, etc ... Let's see, I mean that the Community Mageia can do more than a distribution is also somewhat supportive and marketing and see the name of Mageia between universities, companies like IBM for example in World Community Grid Boinc and can be beneficial in many ways .. .
