Mandriva was a Linux distribution that went out of business years ago. OpenMandriva is one of the projects that rose from its ashes with some of the same personnel and code base. It is an independent (not a fork) and community run distribution that, I think, does quite a lot with very limited resources.
And Mandriva itself was an attempted resurrection of the old Mandrake distribution (which was sorta the Ubuntu of its day). Really hoping OpenMandriva manages to make a go of it considering the ringer those folks have been through.

Mandrake has to be the funniest name ever
