| So in conclusion from my ramblings, Mandriva would have nothing to gain while
| everything to loose by signing such an agreement.

| By reading the speculations about this so far, it all seems like 99% FUD to
| me while the only valid reasoning behind the speculations being the fact that
| a few other vendors has already done so..
