i take it that you didn't start this thread on behalf of the council?
are you entitled to make any statement on behalf of the council?
if not, how does the council communicate with the community?

[...] The proposed alternative site (apps.formeego.com) seems to be a corporate-sponsored site from our own long lost friend, Nokia.
if what a troll previously posted here is true ("the council is the voice of the community to NOKIA
" (my wording)) i'm literally flabbergasted
when was the last time the council had any contact with NOKIA?!?

A maemo.org run by the community would never make such a decision. To maemo and other mobile linux developers, to those of you who support open source, those of you who have said maemo is dead, and those of you who have accepted "free" N950s - think carefully, think twice, and please continue to support maemo.org
again, is this the council's position or just your personal wish?

to also try to nail once & for all one of the reason ppl have been branded trolls over & over again, a final question...
did any member of the council ever ask NOKIA for the source code of closed components?

information is a necessary though no sufficient condition to rationality...
sincerely,
mr.c.
