So, I'm also distmaster for N900. However, the day I became distmaster, I haven't focused on any other hardware than 770, N8x0 and N900. There was the Maemo-on-OMAP project, which was more of assistance to a TI contact to make it easier for developers so they could develop for Maemo without getting a N900. Worthwhile cause to help get developers towards the platform?

I've also been playing with my Joggler lately, but that's been outside of work hours and a personal project.

Clarify for me, if you would please, why I shouldn't feel exasperated and express it as an end user.

I understand that you feel like that and why. However, we're here now. And I'm wondering how we should go forward - how would you like to see your N8x0 in 3 months?

Near as I can tell, it never got to a point where anyone outside of kernel coding could contribute anything worth doing yet.

I think kernel code was probably the least worked area in Mer.
