The bad thing is that it's a completely false sense of security. Okay, let's say Nokia officially does MeeGo for the N900. That will likely kill off most of the existing Maemo 5 work (yes, there is plenty of things going on for those who care to look at gitorious or b.m.o). How much will that allieviate the remorse when you realize it's fairly incompatible with Harmattan, requires separate distribution mechanisms and is completely unsupported by Ovi (even if it pulls itself together), and will see the light of day somewhere in 2012, when the hardware will be outdated ? Is that the sense of security people really want ?

And why is that ? Is it because the community devs are incompetent unmotivated persons, or maybe it has more to do with the windmill fight with closed components, drivers, legal obstacles and similar ?
