While waiting for the Mandriva management to decide the future direction of the distribution, the community is taking matters into their own hands and beginning the planning stages for the next release, assumed to be Mandriva Linux 2012.
In a posting on the Mandriva wiki, development community members stated that even though there is no official roadmap as of yet, “there is a Mandriva community effort around a new Mandriva release, in order to keep people stimulated to contribute.” The community draft is not hosted or sponsored by Mandriva, so any plans are tentative on Mandriva’s official position to come.
