 There are no such decisions taken yet. The future of Pardus will be 
 determined after a workshop that will be realized at the end of March.

 I recommend you all to wait for switch until the workshop is concluded. Of 
 course, you're free to take your action but staying with us means supporting 
 Pardus team during this hard term. The case is not so optimistic, I admit 
 but, without community, we as developers won't have so much to say about 
 Pardus.

 Best regards
