Could you tell us why you have done that?

I have nothing against rpm.org or rpm5.org since I am an old Debian user. I'm just curious...

I prefer not to discuss it as Jeff is on record as saying that I know nothing about the topic, which I wouldn't like to disagree with. You might like to ask Pixel, who made the change. pixel AT mandriva D O T com.
