This must be done without antagonising Nokia. Securing the permission to replicate the content is a possible task for the council.

At the same time, the funding and governing of the future project is also a big issue (donations by members, companies, open source organizations...).

The future development pretty much depends on the number of people willing to maintain/develop each obsolete device.
It is not within the cpabilities of the current council and as for "antagonising Nokia" Nokia have ditched this community and Maemo so the only thing that can be done now is to either rip Maemo and completely re-write making all the closed components open like it has been suggested on here countless many times before and one the council ignore beacuse they do not have the ability to follow this up.

The time has really come to stop beating about the bush using "gentle" words and get to the point IF Maemo is to be saved.
