i'm not in council and i did never apply for a device... what does that tell you about my interest for this community? i'm simply a N900s owner and i have made a selection of less then 200 apps which i have installed on at least one of my N900s at all times i have downloaded the deb packages of those apps and i have several copies of the most recent firmware... do i need this community? well, i still can't download PR 1.3.1 other then flashing my device, going online & updating it with SSU. so, yes, i believe NOKIA will continue to finance at least its own repositories for Maemo and while at it, the community (aka extra) repositories don't cost that much more to keep up & running, do they? i really wonder, why do i actually even post here
