This kind of tone puts everything good you said or suggested a part.

I suggest you to provide feedback to the bugmasters as someone else already suggested here (don't remember the nickname).

As for the AGPS-UI you need to just provide a rough location of where you are. Not an exact city.
And this is something you should add to bugzilla, you hate it or not.
If it's a duplicate of a bug, it'll be noticed when assigned and resolved.
BTW, I think they're already working on alternatives.
Well, I know I was being blunt, it's 8:30 am and I haven't gone to bed yet. No energy for fluff or ***-kissing.

It was more of a "What the hell, why did you guys let this place get so out of date and useless?" Kind of post. Look at it this way, the most active community isn't even the officially sanctioned community by Nokia. Nokia's IT-OS forum shouldn't even exist is is so useless.

There are two wikis, one that is unkempt and half-broken; one new one that is a pretty shade of white and nothing else at the moment.

But the one thing I just don't understand is how they've managed to get this far with a bug-tracking system that is utterly outdated, secretive, unintuitive, counterproductive, and just plain useless to anyone but the original bug submitter who gets zero community visibility because nobody knows his or her problem is even there.

In my opinion, which is pretty insignifigant, we should just use Launchpad so fixes for other distros get propagated to Maemo quicker and from a vastly larger pool of knowledge and to also harbor better interoperability with other software.
