Oh, nm. Upon re-re-rereading, it looks like you're talking about brainstorm itself, not a brainstorm that you've had. :)

After readin bit at Moblin.org and wiki.meego.com, I would say that we should definately try to maintain people like me. That might sound very self-centered, but I mean people who aren't programmers, super-uber-geeks or work for Intel/Nokia.

Moblin seems to be a 100% "industry" based open-source community. They have no forum, almost dead mailing list and governance fully based on corporate members.

For someone like me there wouldn't be any reason at all to be part of Moblin community. Let's not let that happen to MeeGo.

I noticed that. Moblin is mostly professional, and almost exclusively developer. Maemo has a big 'enthusiast' and 'user' component. Now that has its drawbacks (we make a lot of noise!) but it also had advantages.

Though I agree that tonight I am asking whether there's a place for a bear in this Brave New World.

Valuable Maemo parts?

Aside the community, one big thing Maemo should and must bring to MG is...

All the ARM technology expertise that Maemo has developed over all this years.

Moblin was not an ARM distro, it was a x86. So that means they have no legacy or expertise dealing with ARM, and as we know, right now, mobile = ARM.

Yes, the primary strength of maemo.org is the amateur enthusiast community. Ignore us at your peril!

Honestly, since Moblin has no forums, we've got no competition. The mailing-list community has more to worry about than we do ;)

Does this mean that Bugzilla bites the eternal dust? :)

Sadly, Bugzilla is one of the few things both partners have in common.
