Edit: Nokia gave out 300 N950 to community devs. All 300 should be listed here when devices are recieved: http://wiki.meego.com/Community_Offi...okia#Completed
Makes me wonder if its possible to upload GPL apps on Ovi?

for me it would be cool if say:

exprimental versions go to formeego.com and when stable just push it to ovi?`and keep going exprimental/unstable in formeego.com.

Not for Nokias sake but for the N9 consumers to be more succeful for "massmarket". Yes I know it will never get massmarket but atleast northeuropean peoples seems to like it. ANd thats why we need apps on Ovi too...

IMHO! This would be the best strategy to make sure N9 lives longer even if the baord seems to not like it.

I mean mainconsumers dont want to tweek with exprimental/unstable but Ovi definitivly needs lots of apps for the "normal consumers" So we actually need to support it too. Atleast until Nokia decides to rip it...

Infact this is our ONLY way to make sure it lives longer IMHO?
