Mer is a part of Maemo and we are currently very happy with http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer and our presence here.
Certainly quite pleased that typing Mer into Google gives that page as the 2nd hit

@Geneven, hordeman aswell
If the community does some analysis and can show that Mer traffic warrants it then by all means ask the admins here for some breakout - but be aware that going to sit out on your own too soon can make you lonely

If the community feels that Mer is something that it wants to back more then there may be some merit to highlighting it more. I'm concerned about the expectations though. We're certainly not 'done' yet and if people try it and don't like it then it may not be obvious that there's a lot of work left to do. OTOH without some more help we're never going to get there...

I suspect that as the last parts of Fremantle code get released and into Mer and we find a way around the desktop 3D issues then Mer will breathe some more life into our trusty N8x0/770s - at that point I hope that we will see a real boost in user traffic and not just us dedicated hackers.

Nb the http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer/Status pages are where I'd like to see more and clearer device support. (Note to self, must add the Marvell Avengers-A)
I personally hate wading through hundreds of posts to manually distil information out - I'd far rather people put a bit of effort into contributing to the content around a project than just talking about it. Personal view though.

Whilst I'm here, we should also apologise for the last 0.16 cycle; not our finest period.

FYI Carsten has moved country, gotten married and moved jobs; I've been focusing on infrastructure (OBS especially) and personal work; we're also aware that a lot of the things we could work on run the risk of being invalidated as more Fremantle opens up so we've been a bit tentative in what we've done. I know... don't give us excuses... give us bling!

@switchfiend
I've set up an area and imported a *lot* of Fremantle Extras applications but I've not had time to install and review them; ISTR someone volunteered to do that but I don't recall who - needless to say it hasn't happened.
They're not in the app-manager though... not sure why. It's on the list

It's certainly a great way for non-coders to help out in Mer though.
Constructive testing and tracking quality is crucial to our success.
