I believe the purpose of the board is to primarily develop for the platform, brainstorm, and fix bugs in the system / software. Informing others is secondary.

Again, anything I say shouldn't matter, because I am not one of those in the know, but you're basically saying that those in the know have to be everyone's b*tch, or the platform will fail.

Doesn't the platform have a major corporation behind it?
1. I didn't say TMO has to be that platform (of spoonfeeding)

2. I said either TMO can transform into that platform, or simply point us to another forum where such platforms can flourish.

3. If that's the belief of every board member, then, again, I would respect that and kindly ask for another forum that caters to end users

4. I'm not saying that Maemo will fail. It can still continue to thrive in its own old ways, but not in the mass market IMO, should such a community fails to exist.
