There's nothing wrong with posting MeeGo news on here if it's in the relevent places. MeeGo has it's own sub forum, where the large N9 discussion thread is, I see Cordia is in the 'alternatives' section, Qt crosses over from time to time in the development section which is understandable. I don't see much wrong with how things are now, just my two cents.

He's entitled to, as a moderator, but you're also entitled to appeal if you think it's unfair.

By the way, I had a quick look at your 14 post history and they've all been posts where you've swung in to defend abill_uk in various threads. You even have a similar style of writing. Nothing wrong with that, it just struck me as interesting.. ahem

Since when do Polls mean anything here. What happened to the poll of opening the closed source maemo parts. How is Meego anywhere near related to actually having a Maemo poll. When Maemo polls dont mean jack to Nokia, why should the community let another community working under Nokia feel any different. This forum is clearly not based on democracy, ban whomever u feel like banning, rediculous to say the least

This poll was an attempt to get an insight into how the community feels about meego news, I was fully expecting the results to go this way and the thread to be used for the opposition to express their dismay.

This community, thankfully, has rules and governing bodies. Might want to read up on that.

In his defence (why I am doing this!), to me and possibly others, "this forum" means talk.maemo.org in general, not specifically the Community section.

I know that vBulletin uses the terminology that Community is a forum, Multimedia is a forum, Off Topic is a forum etc., and so talk.maemo.org is a collection of forums (plural), but other sites I use would call the entire site a forum (singular), which is then split into "folders" or "sections", and that is the terminology my brain likes to use.

I tend to use "forum" for the forum as a whole and "subforum" or "section" for the various... er... sections.

I agree entirely, it does make me think sometimes when people start calling sections/categories "forums", makes me annoyed :P

AIUI Bada is a pluggable kernel architecture, so yes, can have a Linux core (or at least the Samsung Bada docs claim so).

Anyway, I just think a change of name is suitable if MeeGo is to be discussed. Call it Maego or Meemo or whatever, maemo.org does not describe what this site is about if MeeGo is included.
Okay, so how about oses-and-applications-mostly-related-to-the-nokia-NIT-line-including-but-not-limited-to-Maemo-Harmattan-MeeGo-or-competing-devices-running-derivatives-of-these.org ? I mean, we can go all nitpicky, I just don't see why MeeGo is the place where you draw the line.
