Mandrake needs community support...
Mandrake is currently in a tight financial situation. and are asking it's users to help...

It is offering a "Mandrake Linux Users Club" where members pay 5$ (and upwards) per month, and thus helps mandrake to stay alive...

All Club members will get some manner of special treatment in exchange, depending on the level of commitment offered.

Quote:
We firmly believe that if the entire community of users is mobilized we can easily get past this current situation.
Quote:
Make a difference and join the Club today so that the distribution can continue to remain free and true to the Open Source spirit.
More information can be found @ The Reg and @ Mandrake

I guess Mandrake isn't spared the current bad financial times. Reminds me of what Slashdot is doing now. Placing banner ads in their articles; just saw one big IBM ad today.
