Having had a chance to talk to the people at MWC last week, from what i gathered was that Maemo is going to become MeeGo, but the point of change in the temporal frame was not talked about. We were just told that MeeGo will take over soon but how soon was not disclosed. Although it was said that the code will be released in Q2/Q3

Most of the Maemo Employees like Jussi, Peter etc all were clueless as to how and when the branding will take place.

On a quick word with Arri Jasski, I was told that Maemo is definitely going to become MeeGo and we will not confuse our customers on this issue. I was also hinted that Maemo 6 will become MeeGo eventually.

I feel this a delicate issue as either community would want more power, for instance, who will head the MeeGo forums (maemo admin or moblin admin) who will be the marketing dude, etc etc.

Although it looks nice on paper but it could turn out ugly, if you get what i mean.

For now I can see that there are already people working on MeeGo from the inside and that the working team has been finalized.

Anyone from here with more details, please share your views. We need a community perspective on this so share your thoughts.
