And where are skype, flash (9) , microb, navigation software, etc... in Cordia and Meego? Don't get me wrong, I fully support those efforts (yes, I do), but also I want fully functioning device in my pocket. And the only OS that gives such functionality for N900 till now is Maemo 5. I do not understand that consumer way of thinking - there is new toy (OS, car model, whatever), lets put our current one in trash and hurry about new one.
And please, do not tell me that we should ban evil companies(Skype/M$, Adobe) by not using their services on our FOSS devices.

1 I hate RPM,s gives me the PMS.
2. The point of have that the gsm part open is so you can have your phone running with any linux os you want and have a working phone at the same time. I mean, when Maemo dies, do you really want to install another closed source os? isnt that like ahh again?

This thread was about opensource Maemo OS. And the above apps is no way near to be open sourced anyway, And too me its kind of wierd discussion from abill and now you.
First you want everything open. Then people complain when there IS open alternatives to use, Meego. "Because its not ready"?
Why doesnt people get this straight:
Open Source will only be "ready" if people contribute! There is no "fast way".
Personally I doubt those who have voted yes ever will contribute anyway. Its much simpler to click a damn button in a forum than actually contribute to the open source. I know I am not that good to contribute myself for years :-( So dont get me wrong but...
IMHO. If you prefer Maemo. Stay with Maemo and accept the facts that some components/drivers etc will never be open. Or help improve a great new OS.
I am sure the community can, with help of alot of people, make Meego a killer OS on N900 if people contribute to it instead of sitting in this forum and cry about some deprecated codebase from Nokia.

You very clearly don't understand that phones are NOT like PC's.
You can't just install different OS' and get full functionality from them all...
The ONLY OS that will ever be usable on a day-day basis allowing us to fully utilise our N900 is Maemo 5. MeeGo will NEVER get to where Maemo is now on the N900. On new phones made for MeeGo it could potentially be amazing.
But MeeGo at best will struggle on our N900s compared to Maemo 5.
With opened source code we could make Maemo just that bit more perfect for our N900 as we dont want to contribute to MeeGo as no matter how much effort we put in, nothing good will really come to our N900, only for the new Nokia and other manufacturers phones designed for MeeGo will benefit from our work.
If we had source code to Phone,Conversations and Calendar. We could implement working portrait support that is bug free or almost bug free and improve alot of UI related things after the main code has been cleaned.

Yes, very cool
And Nokia is even a proud sponsor of the movement, yet they dont release gsm code?

The up to date NO vote is suprising indeed and i am rather shocked to say the least these people obviously do not want to support the CSSU.
