Mandriva Research and Development projects

XtreemOS

This second version of the grid operating system (OS grid), based on Mandriva is in the process of being finalised. The version 2.0 is set to be revealed at the end of July.

We also hope to bring out project-dedicated USB Mandriva Flash disks which will enable a grid to be tested in a few minutes.
Mancoosi

The Mancoosi project has two objectives:

» improve the meta-installers (urpmi) by analysing the dependencies before a package is installed and by offering a high level choice (smaller packages, more stable, ...) for the alternatives;

» and offering installations which can be rolled back. The aim of Mancoosi is to reunite a very large number of bug reports from different distributions to be able to propose a competition between the algorithms of package choice. For this competition to be stimulating it will depend on your bug reports.

We hope to be able to integrate in urpmi the best algorithm of dependance choice.

Quality Assurance

We are working on several projects such as Qualipso or Helios in order to improve in an objective manner the quality of our distribution.

However, it's not simple! You can follow our progress on the section testcloud of doc4.
Graphical User Interface

Mandriva wishes to establish a semi-automatic annotation system within Kmail through natural language processing.

Thanks to the Nepomuk API, these functions will be standardised in applications.

We are also working on an integration interface where the user will be able to view the urls, files, repertories, mails, list of sub-tasks concerning the task on which he is working.
