Ah, yes: Bug 630.

MeeGo is an open platform project hosted by the Linux Foundation. Therefore the standards of reference in the MeeGo bugzilla are in the lines of http://bugzilla.kernel.org

We have learn that open bug tracking goes together not only with open source but also with open development. The fact that Nokia platform developers will be able to develop openly in the MeeGo context (as opposed to the context of whatever next confidential product and release) will make their life a lot easier dealing with public bugs.

Also note that different components will have different maintainers, from different companies, independent developers, etc.

MeeGo will not deal with bugs related to Nokia closed apps available in MeeGo devices by Nokia. At this point I really don't know what will happen with those. We haven't discussed this yet. But Nokia closed source apps are off-topic in this MeeGo thread.
