Neither is community support. It has yielded nothing as far as the OS goes. Only the applications that go into it might get some updates.

No community SSU, no TI 3D drivers, no Mer that'll replace Maemo... yeah. Community support has given me updates for DialCentral, for parts of RTComm... but that's not OS specific.

People want official support so they will not feel left behind. It's not that it will bring anything new to the table other than lessen the buyer's remorse that we're witnessing. And that's not exactly a bad thing.

The community delivers better apps, so far downright abysmal on supporting the OS.
