Wait. Are you saying that Meego replaces maemo 6? So, won't we see a Maemo 6 device, but instead a meego device from Nokia?

On top of that, why RPM? :confused:

Nokia stated that the MeeGo announcement will not affect any Maemo 6 timeframes.

So does this reset Nokia to step 1 out of X ?... or is it still 4 out of 5?

It seems that these things still need to be decided, and it's part of our job to do so.

To me, the big picture implication of all this ruckus is... well, remember all the criticism when the N900 was released and the responses to them? The responses (and I don't disagree with them) is that this was a new phone and it was just at the beginning, so cut it some slack!

I foresee ANOTHER period of adjustment and great excuses for problems. This has to be bad news in the short term at least for N900 users and worse news for N800 / N810 users.

For developers, it may be good or great news. Certainly there will be plenty of work to go around.

I secretly wonder (well, I guess it's not a secret now) whether Nokia is responding to its recent problems (see the stock market) by finding powerful friends, and may be daydreaming about merging, as an exit strategy, if necessary.

IDoes it have to be worse news for N800/N810 users? Maybe one of the possible results is that all of the Maemo 6 and future attention will go to Meego and some balance can be restored to this community for Maemo 4/5/Mer users.

my vote still goes for maemo.org :D

dunno why...but the word maemo sounds very cute like a kid with speech impairment. while meego sounds like "amigo" or "may i go" or me ego = my ego...

can maemo just absorb moblin w/o changing the name???

I hope so, but will this community still be here? Under what name? I feel the rug moving under my feet... they can't very well have a site called maemo.org still, can they?

Umm, so basically it's still largely undecided?? Or are you hinting that the "final solution" will consist of some resources on maemo.org, some on moblin.org, and others on meego.com???

No, No, No!!

Damn... nobody told me when I was interested in the N900 that I'd have to update my bookmarks!

What is wrong with these people?!??! ;)
