Well, we are all in the same boat here. Understand it now or in the next couple of weeks, but bug fixes (and I'm not talking about enhancements, only bug fixes) that are postponed to the next OS that will "probably" won't support our product is more than annoying - this is something that we as customers should not tolrate.

Since the first drops of "Will n900 support Harmattan?" here on talk.maemo.org and until this thread that points directly to a rare Nokia's offical communication with us, the customers, about the bug fixes - I thought deeply on what can be done, from a consumer point of view. And the fact Nokia is keeping radio silense only encourage me to think they don't want any offical "No, it won't support" comm as they don't want the rage of their current customers would become offical, and enjoy the dubios pleasure of us not being able to officaly protest against their (weird) buisness strategy.

First, we, the customers, should address Nokia directly with this.
I've seen the Texrat thread about taking it up with the council, and that's great, but it doesn't prevent us from taking action and turning to Nokia.

Only question left is how? (Should this be discussed in a brain storm? )
I thought about an electronic petition - a website that summerizes all being said here, and hopefully gets the web & the community's attention. On the site we can demand the minimum (or maybe more) that we expect right now - like bug fixes. If this thing catches momentum we might even ask for reasenable enhancemes (which also appear at bugzilla).

The petition will also remind Nokia that buying the next n9x0 device is not obvious and grately depends on how they will treat n900 and its community.

Your thoughts?
