Yes, except when you ask to try to run the N900 image, people say its not ready. So all we can do is sit on the outside and watch. That isn't open to me. Heck, the N900 image didn't even get built for a period of time because it had stopper bugs. And that prevented others from working on their parts and end users from testing it.

Lets say this... the N900 is the first and biggest Meego handset platform. And it literally has ZERO user testing on it. How can it be ready for release ?

Contrast this to how Fedora does things. Strict feature freezes. Daily/weekly builds. Code breakages are not allowed. Several live versions. Several RCs. Releases into a -testing repository. Lots of end user testing. Then and only then is it ready to be released. None of this has happened with Meego.

Don't dare tell me that anything they have thus far is ready for release, because by the open community standards, its not even close.
