Me, personally? No. But you struck out broader and more incorrectly than I believed possible.

I stated an opinion, that Nokia left the maemo behind because they were dissapointed with Your effort.
And your opinion is, to no small degree, wrong and off base. Nokia left Maemo/MeeGo because Nokia completely dropped the ball internally and because of corporate shenanigans.

I tried to emphasise in every post, that I love the community effort, but i think i can call myself a power user (comparing to averages, not to the community ofc). I believe that Nokia was counting on more appsor should I say "joyfriendly", maybe more involvemennt.
Nokia was hoping to attract developers, and they did. However, they didn't retain the commercial developers, and the open source developers have been doing what they can despite things.

Nokia, whose job it is to attract and support developers, didn't show any wider support for Maemo on other devices, nor did they get Ovi working like it was supposed to until real late. But that's essential, and Nokia didn't make it work. Now, please don't attack and blame and slander this community for something that isn't it's fault.

I stated the opinion, and you took it as i was attacking your sisters virginity.
You are quite the vulgar one, aren't you?
