But codeina only works with gstreamer based apps IIUC...

About codecs.... Codeina will be available in Mageia ? I find it very comfortable for new and advanced users.
Yes. It is available on Mandriva and I don't see any reason to drop it from Mageia.
the US the laws are actually much less strict now, than people seem to think:

I'd say this is another strong argument towards including libdvdcss on the CD/DVD of the Mageia distro.

draklive or equivalent
ability to remaster on the fly like MCNL can would be great. http://forum.mandriva.com/viewtopic.php?t=127058

This may find its way to the faq or team-specific brainstormings :-) There's already a [[http://futurist.se/gldt/2010/10/10/gnulinux-distro-timeline-10-10/ new GNU/Linux timeline]] (including Mageia), see [[http://cookerspot.tuxfamily.org/wikka.php?wakka=Blog20080509LinuxEtDesPilotesMaterielLibres plans for Linux]] [fr]

Mageia can use good roots from where it comes. I try to follow good ideas that already have appropriate implementations which should be more advertized (or enhanced if needed)

~- that's a bad idea as it takes more time to download, more space on mirror ( see the thread about the current mirror size, and the issue for mirror admin )
~- it complicates the security update deployement

===Use what already exists or document it better===
What about an option for installing self contained packages like in macos or ""klik://.""
Well, one-click install as in ""klik://"", i hope not. That actually defeats what most/all distributions achieve using a package management system. Ie, not installing (or compiling) wildly software like in windows.
we already have this feature on Mandriva Linux, just click on a rpm to have it opened with gurpmi
