Yes, the thread may not have broken the rules specifically, but keeping in mind the below, I think it was the right decision.

The request there was made, in good faith, by prolific contributors, not only to this project, but to the very work you mention. In addition, MeeGo is not Maemo, regardless of the devices on which it is being put on.

This in mind, would you really be happy for the thread to be reopened, despite the people doing the actual work not participating? Seems a bit stubborn and pointless, IMHO.

(i am on my n900, responses might be slow)
Let me explain.
Yes, the thread was requested to be closed by tho OP, who had the desire to follow somewhere else.
But the thread also was requested not to be closed, by other long time contributing members, who desired a place inside TMO (still ITT in the mind of many) to further discuss their following and experiecies with Meego in N810.
The thread doesn't only belong to the OP, but to everyone posting there. If the OP desired not to post anything more there, he easyly could have done so. No point in closing the thread.
So, yes, I disagree with closing that particular thread, and I'm among those who have no desire to open an account on yet another forum to follow a particular aspect of the ITTs.
May be I'm just pointless or stubborn, but this is what I think.
