if Nokia is really serious into making maemo/developers happy with ovi-store:
I suggest the following

In ovi-store:
Create a mini-account (maemo/type):
Features of mini-account {maemo}:
1- Free
2- split of profit = 60-40 share or even 50-50 + restriction on how many apps to release per month (These only for programs that are non open source /none port) + the application got a label tag of "None ovi-premium" or some things to indicate this is from small user/small company with an free account + preventing it to appear in featured category
3- On open sources the max price for application can be €1~€2 and split as 90-10 or 85-15 | This to be used as donation system (if someone wants to donate more ,lets him buy it more than one time)
4- Ability to upload free programs with no restriction
5- Registering is open to everyone
6- Lets the application of this user type to use non-nokia official libs {user compiled} + you can add a label of "Not supported application" or similar
Normal account:
as it is now + if there is any feature of the mini-account (obviously it should have)


For those who still didn't get it:
1- Make new account where users can register for free
2- Play with profit margin + add restrictions to indicate of non-professional work and to minimize the lose of your €50
3- Shows that Nokia/Ovi-store don't support these type of application (Buy as your own responsibility)


There is still anther option (Making new store )
