What will Elop do with the closed parts Maemo/Meego?
 
1 - Sink it to the bottom of the arctic sea where no one will find it. EVER!

X. - Use it for his staff to devloping his own OS, called PeeGo, which only he is allowed to use, since he realised windows is not good enough for him.

2. Give to the poor guys that have supported the OSes for several years. (Yes, that's right. The poor guys are you and me, pal)

No, Incorrect answer!

I believe it will be answer 1.

"1 - Sink it to the bottom of the arctic sea where no one will find it. EVER!"

But, with enough dedication, someone(poor guys) might eventually get to it. Or, Nokia might release these things once they are not as relevant.

So that we don't go down this road again, after the WebOS announcement, I suggested again to Nokia opening up some parts of maemo. The response was silence.

Honestly?

1) Sink it to the bottom

Open sourcing everything takes resources and lawyer time and developer time, neither which our beloved Maemo Devices has anymore.

In addition to that, most of Harmattan apps is built around a dead framework (MTF) and Fremantle apps is built around also dead one (Hildon, though that is being rebased on GTK+3)

We got a significant amount of things open sourced through MeeGo, but I think that's about it we'll see for now.

Me, myself, leaning towards option X. Elop has fired alot of people and he might building a secret staff at some remote location and later on, a secret OS for himself. Unfortunately, I have no proof at this time!

Option 2! We will get it :D

Would it possible for Maemo Council to send a mail directly to Elop?
