So, if you are a dev and want to run MeeGo - don't worry there will always be hacks for you.
N900 hardware adaptation for MeeGo isn't a hack. What they're saying is they won't provide the package of MeeGo Core + N900 hardware adaptation + handset UX + Nokia apps/artwork/differentiation and commercially support this in all channels/etc. The first three are MeeGo project made and not a hack. MeeGo Core + Handset UX has to be the basis of future handset and N900 hardware adaptation has to be a stable and working reference implementation for ARM devices in MeeGo.

Last one is possible to provide through community (with a stamp saying 'not commercially supported') probably.
