There is a Free Pascal IDE similar to classic Delphi named Lazarus.

            I suggest what 1st
              Mageia version be called "Xavante"

              

              Xavante is a Brazil indigene tribe. When Brazilian distro
              Conectiva was sold to Mandrake to form Mandriva, at the
              late 2005, some Conectiva users tried to create a fork
              called Xavante - just like is happening now-, but the
              distro was not ahead.

              

              Would be a surprising and amazing tribute if this codename
              was adopted and would recognize the Brazilians as part of
              Mandriva operatting system and, now, from Mageia operating
              system.

            
          
        
      
      

    
    

    I guess the first release of Mageia will need to have a more
    symbolic name, like Fedora has, a name that is symbolic even for
    people that are not inside the community. Sadly Xavante will not
    mean anything for people from outside, that's why a much more
    powerful name would be better to have a great meaning (and why not
    link it to the artwork? Well, that'll be to determine in the
    future). 

    

    Yet, using Xavante as a little name for one of the pre-releases of
    the first stable release for Mageia could be really nice.

My two cents:
We could use "Lazarus", giving a response to all people ou' there was speaking the "death" of Mandriva and it's community.

Cheers
