The answer was NO

Then all these cries for ecosystems. Again - any chance of making a great ecosystem with MeeGo, and do it fast? - NO

The license for Alien Dalvik costs surely less than a license to WP7.
Also, why not develop FOSS Dalvik for Meego.

Android has two years of ahead start with application development. There is no chance it can be archived if Meego won't be able to run Android-apps. Now there is at least one solution: Alien Dalvik.

Besides, there are lots of developers who chose Android just because they can develop in Java. But many of them would like to have "real" Linux on bottom, and not the cribbled Android-Linux.
I would assume, Meego+Dalvik would be a real winner if the hardware was right (dual-core CPU, 1GB RAM, 8MP camera, digital compass, gyroscope, xyz-accelometer and so on.)
