You really don't have understood what I said.

I'm saying that it's terrible news for him and a lot of people inside Nokia. But he's the face from Nokia to the Maemo/Meego community and he's supposed to explain how's this going to work. If I were him or I was in charge of any project at Nokia I would be really pissed.

Ainīt this guy from Nokia who managed to write pretty long posts where he ended up saying not so much. Marketing kind of guy that keeps on going and going and going and....repeat

For most of us, this is 'just' our hobby and software for our gadgets.
For some people here, like Quim, it's his job. Or maybe even more.

Please take a second to think and have a bit of consideration when posting in this thread.

But hey! You should always behave nicely and say just nice things about your boss and business choices. Never ever show any passion about your job and business by criticizing it because you might end up getting boot. YEP thatīs current culture in most of workplaces - Just shut up and workworkwork :|

It's really unfair to call Quim out by name in your thread title, it comes across to the reader as if you're demanding some kind of explanation from him. I only know him a little from the coding competition and the MeeGo conference but I genuinely believe he has the best interests of Maemo and MeeGo at heart. He doesn't choose the company direction, if he did Nokia would be a much better company imo. Whatever happens I hope he'll not be shifted off into other projects, and that he's given the full support by Nokia to bring the MeeGo project to fruition.

You are right, I've changed the title of the thread to be more generic.

I think he may be more confused than us. Don't make him with more pressure... I think most of us know that he has already did his best.

Will we see the same amount of people leaving Nokia as we have seen in Sun after Oracle's purchase?

Will it be the begin of forking open source projects from Nokia like the mess that we have seen in OpenOffice and other Sun's projects?

In fact, I'm more concerned by the future of Qt than Meego.

Qt is still the best cross platform GUI library on desktop. It work well on Linux , Windows and Mac. I wish it can be kept. I really like it.

However, Nokia gain profit from mobile market. I just afraid the resource for Qt development will be reduced. It may need more power from open source community.
