Well, have a look too at [[Blog20101002MageiaLegalManagement legal management]] for some issues, here is more of a page about artistic and Mageia promotion ;-) (in packages and release process)


Some information may have to be proposed upstream when needed, so that white label ("[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White-label_product marque blanche]]") can be taken into account easily, though crediting appropriately the contributors at the same time.

===Mageia Artwork or name in packages===
==main objectives==
Identify changes between development cycle / release milestone (beginning with rc1 or rc2)
Permit OEM distribution and adaptation to enterprise deployment (for example).
To be checked : internal appearance of distribution (what is distributed, mainly artwork and process for announce) and external appearance (how it is distributed, mainly external communication with clear objectives and translations available)

==cross-distro initiative==
take into account cross-distro initiatives, promoted by http://freedesktop.org for example, see http://distribution.freedesktop.org
have a look at what is reused from FHS or LSB for example
http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=current#upcoming distrowatch coming distributions
http://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=links#new (Mageia submitted on 2010-09-18)
http://distrowatch.com/stats.php?section=popularity
http://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=package-management (perhaps pclinuxos or unity linux should use urpmi :p)
well, spreadmageia.org should be bought :-) (or spread.mageia.org may be suficient) and other communication initiatives like agenda.mageia.org or live.mageia.org or events.mageia.org

==plymouth theme==
or gdm or kdm...
for opening session or boot theme or shutdown/hibernate theme
enhance theme for coming back from hibernation or screen lock with login screen (or change session)

==background theme==
in several DE or WM ;-) be it kde4, gnome, xfce
remember to add specific screensavers
perhaps add specific window theme (like la_ora)

==help or about pages==
~- LibreOffice bootsplash
~- indexhtml used by evolution / firefox (to be translated)
~- drakxtools help (with list of contributors)
~- user agent used by web browsers, server invite (openSSH, apache httpd...)

==packages names==
well, many packages have to be renamed (and content reviewed once artwork is chosen for the release).
I would suggest to rename those packages replacing mandriva by "distrib" :-) so that mageia can be "distrib"uted by anyone wishing to do it
