*penguinbait, to address the correction earlier more helpfully, the reason why it's most certainly not the "Maemo Council" (which is the same reason why "Maemo.org" is inappropriate) is because when you say "Maemo", what you're actually saying is "Nokia".
Why is "Maemo.org" inappropriate? Right on the front page it says "Copyright © 2002-2009 Nokia Corporation". So it IS Nokia. If it is not Nokia, then perhaps MaemoCommunity.org (maemocommunity.org) would be a better web address than Maemo.org (maemo.org), since I doubt a lot of people will catch that "maemo" is something different than "Maemo". I also doubt that changing the case of a letter holds much weight in Trademark law.
