The more I follow the developper mailing list of MeeGo, the less I want to have it on my phone, when I see how the intel developers don't care about opinions of users, and the poor choices they made.
I basically agree with you.
"Meego = Moblin + best of Maemo" from slides does say that it is Moblin NG. Seems to me that MeeGo added Qt and telephony stuff from Maemo but Maemo doesn't really have Qt yet (I mean a working Maemo )
Probably we should spend some time to compare MeeGo and Maemo in the future.

To be fair, Moblin and Maemo share a lot pkgs, so that I can't really say it is Moblin NG

I was thinking that 2 strong companies with Linux Fundation behind gave it a balanced-power over the project, is it still true? I hope MeeGo won't be just another Android.
I am still waiting for the truely opened MeeGo development to see how things goes and kinda reluctant to trust feelings ...
