About OpenMandriva

OpenMandriva
Lx (often shortened OMA) is a French based GNU/Linux distribution
developed by the community as continuation to world class operating
system called Mandriva. The developer team claimed that OpenMandriva is
unique and independent, that is, it’s the first distro built using LLVM
(Clang) technology instead of GNU GCC and it isn’t based upon any other
existing distribution. It has two main choices, Rock, the stable edition for users who prefer their computing not changed too quickly, and ROME,
the rolling release edition for users who like their software always
latest everyday. Lastly, OpenMandriva Project welcomes everyone to get
involved in the development together by many ways including donation in
which you can find at their official website www.openmandriva.org.
