Can we agree at least that "talk.meego.com" needs to start from scratch, since the MeeGo project starts from scratch? Just renaming talk.mamo.org doesn't make any sense to me, even if the legal aspect (privacy data, etc) was clear, which is not. Maemo 1-5 and OS200n are not MeeGo. All the apps discussed here will need to make their MeeGo API compatibility check. 99% of the posts in this forum are not related or relevant to MeeGo today.

Why would the MeeGo project want to take this? Please look at the possibility of this move from the perspective of a non-Maemo guy e.g. someone with a background in Moblin, Android, OpenMoko, OpenEmbedded, Ubuntu Mobile, Qtopia, Pandora etc etc. How do you explain to them than their/your/our forum starts day 1 with half million posts basically off-topic from a MeeGo point of view?

What matters is the people, and there is nothing stopping anybody from registering at meego.com. If someone here is not intersted personally about doing this step, then why bother about organizing complex user/content migrations.

MeeGo is a new community project and it makes total sense that the new community members step in by their own feet. Nobody has made a big fuzz about registering to the mailing lists and we have some already, being active and useful.
