I always thought it was just about posters...whom in the council he disaffects with?

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

FOSS communities are large, but the true 'engines' are usually very few and far in between. A very very small minority of the whole... but they are the ones that made and move these communities

Carsten, you are one of them.

You will be missed, but not forgotten. See you on the flip side :)

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

come on stskeeps,its not a meego/maemo world war .you could have stayed here and could do a lot more ,will miss ya but dont want to .people can be bad only then you know about goodness .there is no darkness in the world but it is all about not getting away from LIGHT . gd luck though

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Thanks for everything stskeeps.

You were one of the great few who made this place so interesting, informative and fun.

Dude, you were a cornerstone in this forum.

My sincere good wishes to you and take care.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Your coding skills are well known and much valued by all of us. However, for my part, I would like to say thank you for the clarity you have broufght to discussions and for setting a lot of us straight, especially with regards to the technical aspects in the opaque world of the closed sections. It's sad that frankness produced toxic responses from others.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Is this a sign to show that I should be moving away from my N900 as well? Or stay away from Nokia forever.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

I hope this is not end of the Meego dev on n900 just leaving this forum.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Clear your mind. The wonderful thing about technology is that there's a lot of it, its diversity and it is dynamic.

Nokia + WP will be super hot, untill the opposite is proved. But that is at least 6 months from now. iPhone was super hot, but proved to be dead boring. Android was super hot, but proved to be dead boring. Maemo was super hot, and still today almost 2 years after launch there is nothing to compete with it ( I also got my N800 from ages ago). Bada is super hot. Symbian Anna is super hot (getting a E6 any day now). Whether the E6 will take over for my N900 remains to be seen, Bada did not, nevertheless Symbian and Bada are both hot and fun.

Unless it is boring, keep on going and have fun. :D

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Mate, don't worry. Carsten and the entire dev team a working hard on N900DE and good things are planned for upcoming releases soon.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Bye! Enjoy your time.... You will be back when you sober up :)

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

always the word "soon" worries, it tells me that there is no real target ! do you have any dates and list of good things, I am not being sarcastic or -ve just a question?

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

I must be kidding because I voluntarily confessed I didn't understand that whole episode? I knew he had problems with the council but never knew the specifics.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Might be nice if you stayed on topic here. I think Stskeeps deserves a nice send off. No need to muddy the water.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Thanks for all your help and insight Stskeeps - you are a top man and will be missed here. All the best for you on Meego, will defo be keeping an eye on it from time to time.

As for those idiotic trolls... in honour of Stskeeps please add them to your "ignore list" NOW (if you havent already).

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

So the topic is how great Stskeeps is and it's perfectly ok to call for the stomping of abiluk -- that is completely on topic. Ok...

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Oh, don't worry about it. In order to prevent WP from getting super hottie, Microsoft has already announced Windows 8 on ARM, which could run Windows application like Microsoft Office natively (ARM compiled) and Microsoft also assures that apps that could run on would definitely not be compatible with WP7.

If you see the smoke, it's the effect of cold water pouring on over-heated unborn Nokia WP7 phone.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

I was on the Council at the time (IIRC). I didn't know he (qwerty12) had problems with anyone on the Council, nor felt particularly strongly about the the concept.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Well, I don't really get this - trolls are there to be ignored.
Don't feed them and they'll starve to death.
Simple as that, IMO.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Aww.

I'm sad to see you go, sir, because I don't think I'll be following over to MeeGo.com. There's not many left of your calibre here.

.t

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

It must have been one of my mad couple of months at work because I never actually worked out why qwerty left us. He was just gone.

On the topic, thanks for your hard work Stskeeps, see you in #meego-arm

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Don't let the few, destroy the greatness that is this site..

Please consider all of those who thanked you as the true spirit of this community!

Good Luck!

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Stskeeps, Thanks for all the insight and tremendous efforts all these years. Always professional and always driven. I'll see you on the MeeGo side.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

I just wanted to point out that NOTHING that the above quoted text was replying to needed the poster to be stskeeps' spokesman - it was just logic.

The fact that you never read the rant 'closely' is important here. Anyway, for the record, based on what I remember of the information that floated around after qwerty12's departure, the situation was actually very similar. There was some fella referred to, who I believe constantly spewed the same kind of stuff in the IRC that abill_uk and some other folks are declared to be spewing here.

Qwerty12 didn't explicitly express it the way Stskeeps did it, BUT it was a psychologically important influence in that situation. On the other hand, qwerty12 was also annoyed with the Maemo situation as a whole, namely the repository promotion process, how stuff lounged in -devel and -testing, etc.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Thanks for everything Carsen. I'm hoping that from your quote of "thanks for all the fish" you may soon be saying "and another thing". lol ;-)

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

The plot thickens. WTF! What did he do anyway?? :confused: I wasn't around then! Can someone put a page on the wiki about that?? :D

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

I'd just as soon not continue participating in the stskeeps-qwerty12 exit comparisons. I'm sure a search here could turn up the main thread though.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

There is a vast amount of publicly available information on the current development of Meego Developer Edition for N900, targets and everything, but its over on the meego.com sites, not here.

Here is a page that you might find most interesting: http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Summer_Release It covers the plans and progress for the upcoming MeeGo Developer Edition summer release, on June 22nd. Not just promises, its got the info for each feature and bug targeted.

To get even closer to the bleeding edge, there are the mailing lists https://meego.com/community/mailing-lists and IRC https://meego.com/community/irc-channel where discussion happens live. I often find browsing the IRC logs is educational http://mg.pov.lt/meego-irclog/index.html

Hope this helps :)

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

I was around, but I missed it since I'm not interested in the n900.
Search the forum for his last message, best rant ever.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Thank You Carsten. See you around in irc.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

I have returned only to say its about time you left with the rest of us.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

When anything is more popular there'll then be more trolls on its side so keep leaving something doesn't help, it's the basic nature of open forum. False informations should be corrected by restructuring the information tree, adapting a wiki or something. Run a dedicate thread for a leaving or a few of stickies wouldn't help either. This kind of communication (the forum) isn't good in anyway for feeding references so don't expect it to do that.

PS. and running a thread for life time banning some trollings is one the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen.

Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/
 

Take care, Stskeeps... you're one of the few people that would often cut through the bleak, disconnected skepticism with informed optimism that Nokia themselves never offered. I hope you do well everywhere you go!
