It had been previously agreed to use the Council blog as notification of such things. Burying posts in a thread on TMO - even one as on-topic as this one - isn't very inclusive.

If you want a discussion of getting more volunteers, you need people to be able to see the requests and the topic.

Well volunteered. You are, however, wrong. There are two things needed:
  1. Money
  2. Time

From those you can get everything - and migrate everything from *.maemo.org to $SOMEWHEREELSE.

I don't want to play a conspiracy theories either, but this proposed "merge" also seems to be targeted @ [b]sucking developers[/b[ to Harmattan (and, possibly, some of them later to WinSh|tPhone, yet it's harder due to framework differencies), which would be nice continuation of damned N950 project.
I suggest not approaching people who are paying the bills as part of some kind of evil conspiracy. That's not going to give a good working relationship.
