I heard maemo 6 will be released before Meego. Anybody heard anything about this? Or is it just a rumour like the rest of the crap thats been said. Will Maemo 6 even be available for the N900, as an update? It's a very odd move by Nokia as I don't see the point, they have Windows Phone for the mainstream crowd, and Meego for those that like there freedom, but why Maemo now? Supposedly the API will be compatible with Meego 1.2. if you want the source just pop maemo 6 in google news. the sites don't seem that well known so it could be like the 1.4 rumour

Seems like you get your maemo news from engagdet. ;)
Harmattan=Maemo 6 has been meant to be found inside the first "meego" phone from Nokia since the start. Nothing new there.

Search for this forum and you will find hundreads of threads all the way to the second day of MeeGo announcement where the harmattan still being in Nokia's first MeeGo device was said. Couple of months before the WP announcememt it was speculated that Nokia would jump straight to MeeGo core rather than using harmattan that was announced in 2008 and parts that MeeGo handheld UX has taken from harmattan.

Most people don't seem to anymore even bother to keep repeating this in this forum.

Why cant people her read before starting yet another thread.

both on meego.com, TMO and Meego forum and mailinglists and twitter and.... has discussed this topic several times. still people ask same questions...

That made me laugh, but probably closer to the truth than we might like to think. Explains a lot if they have no idea what they are doing, eh?

But hey - I agree, what is the point? We had this discussion a week ago. I'm waiting till next month, as I was told by somebody here in this forum that there will be a MeeGo user release for the n900 in April. So, I am holding my breath. ;-)

Well i dont think there is goona be any update after PR 1.3...Even i installed the Community SSu package and its better to nokia versions till now.
Nokia must do something about n900...god damn it.

They already have, they have dropped support for it and passed that to the community, hence the CSSU!

Then why didn't Nokia also pass on all the closed components to actually enable the community to re-write the OS?, because without this happening it will never be complete and will also probably be dropped for a newer more up to date device in the future.
