My understanding of the situation, please feel free to correct any mistakes:

1. Maemo will not be developed in any new versions, the work will be migrated to meego.

2. Maemo 5 will however still benefit as QT will be the development tool for both and thus programs will run on either platform.

3. People feel that Nokia are abandoning hem and pulling the support, when in fact, at least the way I see it, the QT solution actually means an unrivaled level of support (gets benefit from work done on the new platform)

4. People are worried about how these programs will run on Maemo. if QT is really the development tool for both won't the hard-ware be the only limiting factor? I have yet to see a company that will upgrade your hardware for you so I fail to see how this changes anything?

I feel like Nokia are taking a beating a bit unjustly. If I understand it correctly this will be one of the best supported platforms out there thanks to their QT solution (wasn't this half of the idea behind it)? I somehow feel that he real issue here isn't so much the platform and the continued support from Nokia but the fact that in order to keep working on it everyone has to migrate to the meego project?
