We were talking about raising money for maemo and how that is usually done in the context of FOSS organizations. (and how the particular scheme discussed in this thread differs from the norms)
Inspired by an earlier post, my question is, would you be willing to donate $10 for the purpose of a fundpot, to be used for:
  • Devlopment of Maemo for other higher spec devices
  • Creation of some key apps missing from Maemo but popular on other platforms
  • To inspire skilled programmers working on other platforms to develop for Maemo also

Despite that initial post, noone has discussed the pros/cons of reaching those above goals. Most of the conversation has been, it cant be done, Maemo is dead, Noone will give, dont waste your time, your dreaming, get real etc etc

lol so no wonder its gone the way its gone
