Well, yeah, but did he run Linux...?

I'm not sure if Nokia was desperately in need of an UI/UX guru since from my perspective it's been the hardware that's been lagging (or shelved inexplicably!), but if Nokia has finally found someone to pin a few pricks into the opposition who am I to object...
In any case WebOS was universally hailed as aesthetically pleasing and gawds (
Ukko Ylijumala?
) know that Nokia's backend/cloud services could use some overall UX design help. (unless Meego will be a separate island from rest of Nokia offerings)
As JamesDownWell asked early in this thread, was there anyone in charge of Meego UX before Skillman's appointment?
