Flash Newsletter: Mandrakesoft Announces Name Change!
П
It's been in the air for a few weeks...
П
After spending weeks balancing pros and cons, Mandrakesoft has decided
to change its name!
П
The name change will apply worldwide to both the company and its
products. The management team sees two good reasons for this change:
П
1. The recent Mandrakesoft - Conectiva merger calls for a new identity
that better represents the combination of two key companies and
their global presence.
П
2. The long-winding trademark lawsuit with Hearst Corporation has
reached a point where we decided it is more reasonable for us to
move forward. By adopting a new name, we eliminate the liability
attached to the Mandrakesoft name and we can focus on what is
important to us: developing and delivering great technology and
solutions to both our customers and our user community.
П
We will endeavor to build even stronger brand recognition in our new
name. So what is the new name?
The winner is ...
П
M A N D R I V A
П
Why Mandriva? This new name, simple and efficient, is the synthesis of
Mandrakesoft and Conectiva. This will further a smooth transition and
will build on our existing brand recognition in the IT world.
