Hi, now this thread is an official source of feedback and discussion: http://maemo.org/community/wiki/linuxtag2008/

Please throw names here or there, it's important. Otherwise I could just sit in the office with a couple of Nokia developers doing maemo apps in their hobby time and come up with the invitations after 30 minutes.

The main objective of this maemo track is to meet face to face and have together some discussion about the present and some brainstorming about the future. This is why some criteria for selection could be if you agree:

- "Native" maemo apps prevail over cool yet simple ports. Then we have some complex ports in between, sure.

- Oldtimers with a good perspective on maemo, history and community prevail over recent popular developers just putting their toes in maemo. Sure, it is good also to consider the fresh blood since they come with different appraches.

- Contributors caring also about the community aspects of maemo prevail over those interested only in code + hardware. The LinuxTag track is mainly about the maemo community.

- Subvertive minds prevail over conformist minds. It is good to share some hours under the same roof specially with those having good and strong opinionas about what Nokia should do with maemo.

- And for very practical reasons, Europeans prevail over the rest of the World. We have limited budget for this and flight tickets speak for themselves. Nokia is happy funding bigger and global summits if the maemo community shows a clear involvement in smaller meetings like this one.
