Judging by this thread (and many previous threads) it seems that many believe that this community isn't for me. Not that I will leave, as this is the best place to be for all things related to Maemo.

It's just sad to see this community fragmenting to pieces due to Nokia mis-management.

At any rate, I won't be voting in the next election as I believe that the council isn't supposed to be representing me. I do promise to keep the *****ing to a minimum thought.

I don't think there are any restrictions on who can be on the council. I never tried running myself (only voted like you). But if there aren't any restrictions you and anyone else is free to try running for it. I'm sure there are more then enough people to get elected on the "get Nokia to talk to us" platform.

Then you or anyone else can go ahead and try to talk to Nokia and see why things are the way they are. Then try not to be to upset at the community (while I can see the arguments as to how to device the community I ultimately think that if your on this site your part of it) as they continue to attack anyone in a desperate plea for attention from Nokia.

I personally rather have the council put the efforts towards something that can at least be done rather than something that's impossible. And while I may not be directly influenced by what they work on, I am indirectly affected by it as a user of the N900 and the maemo OS.
