What concerns me is a forum on one server for MeeGo Device X, and a forum on another server for MeeGo Device Y, and a device independent forum at meego.com, when there is so much overlap between device X and device Y and the membership of meego.com.

I don't see the birth of a meego.com forum as the death of talk.maemo.org!!
tmo is indeed a very interesting place with a lot of value. Why not keeping it to discuss about those Nokia products with Maemo/MeeGo inside.

Sorry if I misunderstood you. Yes, that is painful, but you know what, it happens all the time. Not that it is correct, but most of the time, it happens when there are no official forums for that device or a lack of support in that 'official' forum. It's the latter that needs to be done right.

Ultimately I would like to see representation for all MeeGo devices within a single MeeGo forum, I think most people agree with that (although I could be wrong).

Or wasn't http://www.talkandroid.com/android-forums/ the "more official" forum? It's really difficult to tell who is who in the world of Android forums.
Actually the Android case is an example of clearly separate forums for developers and rest of the world.
The official Android "forums" are http://developer.android.com/resourc...ty-groups.html
http://androidforums.com/ is a private initiative from http://phandroid.com/ and both sites ar full of advertisement. I guess it's someone's business, and in it sense of course their interest is to embrace as much as possible.
However, how much can we do to prevent that? Why device vendors, operators and private businesses would act differently with MeeGo?

Problem is, a lot of people will now have to keep track of both forums and they will most likely abandon one of them for the other. This is most likely going to be detrimental to both tmo and the meego.com forums. Can we please just have a single site, with subforums dedicated to MeeGo and Maemo devices, with Maemo stuff being slowly phased out as MeeGo devices hit the market?

I can certainly see the merits of the former, with owners clubbing together to help out etc., and perhaps when there are multiple devices running MeeGo it's the kind of organisational change that could, if thought appropriate, be made to a a meego.com forum.
What concerns me is a forum on one server for MeeGo Device X, and a forum on another server for MeeGo Device Y, and a device independent forum at meego.com, when there is so much overlap between device X and device Y and the membership of meego.com.
