No problem since it's not our business what happens there.

Sorry, they just gave a no and didn't exacly explain why.

Exactly my thoughts.

Which ones are you referring to, the last two posts from joerg_rw that he just deleted or the ones that survived?
At this time, my thanks go to rotoflex and woody14619 of course.

As long as all propietary Nokia or 3rd party code is excluded, this should be fine.

Though I'm not part of the MC e.V. board, I was kind of managing its' establishing. I was in good hope that the ongoing offending of HiFo in general and some directors in special would come to a halt (just because jaffa and GeneralAntilles are not as active doesn't nescessarily mean they have a different POV). I was assuming that everybody involved would finally grep that, since Nokia left the house, community cannot simply keep on going as if nothing happened and that it would be common sense that this was a nescessary thing to do.

Differentiating between community and HiFo/MC e.V. is pointless, ignoring reality and counterproductive, some may even call it venom for a community like ours. If it's still unclear: No, one can't go without the other. But the bright side is: it's some of the most active guys on *.m.o that form the board that are present in council too.
We should be very lucky now and support esp. those 2/3 of board that are forming 2/5 of council. No need to offend those guys for simply doing what's nescessary or best for our community.
Only together we can continue.
