The more i read on here the more ignorance i see and to be honest from what you all speak is total crap and by god i mean CRAP from the development point of view.
I have never in my life read excuses like you have on here and talk about AVOID THE ISSUE !!!.
What woody said really does sums it up and i will quote his words in highlight .....

Personally, I don't think MeeGo (or MeeGo CE) is going to get much farther than it already has. It's running out of time and energy, and by the end of the year Nokia will likely shift to the N9 for MeeGo development. At that point MeeGo CE will spiral faster than a kite in a tornado, still not be as functional as Maemo, and Maemo will still be here. In 3 years we'll be talking about some other new project for some other new half-baked platform, and someone will reference MeeGo as the 2010 version of the ofono project. (Interesting silence on that point btw...)
If MeeGo makes it, great. Tell me when it can be used as a day-to-day system like my Maemo system has been able to do for almost 3 years. But don't tell me or others that developing for Maemo is a waste of time because it too closed and/or stagnating. Especially when the horse your backing just recently left the gate and is only now starting to trot a little bit while mine is half way across the field and still running strong.

This just about sums it all up and i will add one more point, when i was debating this with stskeeps he informed me he was given access to ALL the closed components within Maemo, now what the hell is going on after 8 month you guys can only muster up a stupid ui that half works and please refer to other posts on here not just mine ok, where is the work being done? where is the progress past the release prior to the CE summer edition release? because it is abismally just about a working basic developers platform with absolutely no chance of making it past that.
Please read peoples post such as woody's and gerbick etc and try to get what is being said because all i am getting is nothing but excuses and that i am a bad bad manager or would be.
Meego for the N900 is just not ever going to make it and that is that and when you lot see the problems then you will either admit and move the development to a stage of a flashable image to take over Maemo OR give it up and go elsewhere where your work will be more appreciated.
Really this is making me angry to read such nonsense from grown up men that should know better.
Remember also the big words from stskeeps and his bussom pal wmarone were spouting just like qgil was about Maemo and the end result is ?.
