I think that SD69 has put it very well.

If someone is in a paid position for Maemo, all paid work should be for Maemo related issues (of course there may be some overlap with Meego). Free time (unpaid) is of course free to be spent on whatever project. Frankly, if Nokia is OK with having a paid Maemo person spend time on Meego related projects, it show Nokia's lack of commitment to Maemo.

On the other hand, the Maemo Community Council, should spend some time on Meego related items, as there likely will be some transition in the future. However, again they are the Maemo Communtiy Council and the focus should remain on Maemo issues. IMHO if a council member finds themselves spending the majority of their time on Meego related items, perhaps they should reconsider their commitments and step down.

I believe that the Maemo community will still be vibrant and active for some time to come, perhaps several more years. It needs a Council committed primarily to this community, not some crossover community with diverse interests. At some point Meego should have its' own Meego Community Council, probably sooner rather than later
