Na svu sreću, mediji su ipak pogrešno protumačili situaciju kada je Mandriva u pitanju.
Kako javlja Distrowatch:
Arnaud Laprévote, the newly appointed CEO of Mandriva S.A., has reacted to the recent rumours about a possible sale of the company. Apparently, the media got it all wrong – Mandriva isn’t seeking a buyer; instead it’s the other companies which are looking to acquire some of the assets belonging to the French distribution maker: “We are beginning to harvest the results of this development work with hundreds of thousands of PCs using the Mandriva operating system sold in South America, Asia and rapid sales of Pulse2 and MES5 in Europe. So it is unsurprising that Mandriva has once again attracted the interest of industry decision-makers.” The Mandriva CEO has carefully side-stepped the issue of the situation financière tendue as reported on the Boursorama forum and which gave rise to the media speculation about the company’s health. The good news is that the development of Mandriva Linux 2010.1 continues normally and that the release candidate for the new stable version, although delayed by a few days, should arrive later this week. The final release is still scheduled for arrival on June 3rd.
