I don't see how this changes much for the actually dedicated developers. The knew when they started making their projects that they were long-haul, and mainly N900 related. The tide went out from the N900 harbor a long time ago - everyone who's stayed thus far, I suspect, can be counted on to stay unless time constraints and life circumstance demand otherwise. I mean, it's not like the CSSU was gonna benefit from MeeGo any more before than now. Same with our host-mode. Qt open source replacemnts for our closed apps might seem like they lose their portability, but in reality, they just got their portability range slightly lessened / moved back temporally.

MeeGo will live. Qt may or may not, but I doubt it'll perish completely. Even if Nokia downright kills their Trolltech division, Qt would probably get forked/carried-on-from-there, or something similar would take its place. N900, negligently treated child though it may have been, has matured enough that it will keep on plowing for a little while longer at least.
