Shouldn't take more than a minute or two to copy and paste text into a new thread, or provide a link and a quick synopsis. Because then discussion takes place in two separate locations, which makes it really hard to come to a reasonable consensus.

The maemo-community list sounds like redundant now. Most of the people active there are active here. We clould consider closing it and we would have one redundant channel less.
Which is all the more reason not to kill existing discussion areas.

This is a hardly a clear-cut issue. In fact, it's highly polarized, entrenched and subjective.

The solution here is the mailing list integration into vBulletin, not the closing of a list and the certain loss of several important members.
