Two different things I believe.

As a company Nokia can be as closed as it and its stockholders want it to be.

It should have nothing to do with what OS it promotes.

One thing that troubles me with this premature post mortem of maemo.org if you will is what happened to:

If this was the case shouldn't we be embracing MeeGo and examining ways to continue Community support for Maemo?

I like where I think qwerty12 has been heading recently.

Personally I haven't even come close to reaching the end of my enjoyment of the N900. Not being able to send files to a network printer is my only real restriction and the final nut to crack.

I would have liked to have seen simple tools developed for Maemo that did not require the installation and maintenance of a different desktop OS for me in order to compile lightweight Web apps into distributable .deb files. Especially when those Web apps only consist of an icon, a desktop file, and maybe a css script.

I seem to have hundreds of these things now that I can not correctly share because of this. I'm sure others have plenty more and a collection of these could have been an equivalent response to 80% of what can be found in Apples store.

If WiFi was as prevalent as I hoped it would be by now, my N810 would have satisfy my needs and I would still be learning with it. Many members still do. And although I haven't heard from some of my favorites lately, we still have members just as passionate about their 770's...

What needs to be done in order for Maemo to be 100% community supported and how can we help to make it so?
