Minutes at http://trac.tspre.org/meetbot/meego-...-21-18.58.html - check the logs too, a quite interesting discussion about openness.

Is there any way that this can be done and still allow custom kernels (e.g. titan's)??
Thanks for the update, too. Actively engaging your community early and often will definitely benefit both your users and your team. (see any PR1.2 thread for a counter-example).

I think it's closer to the definition of a hardware adaptation team. You need that to work before you bring in the fun things.
What is happening is that Nokia's actively upstreaming the patches for the N900 and maintaining a hardware adaptation. Isn't this great?
I simply foresee this news being read by many as "Harmattan is coming to the N900". Then, later, if Nokia doesn't provide the Harmattan UX and proprietary applications for MeeGo on the N900, I can see angry cries of "Nokia lied to us!"
I just wanted to know if Nokia has as yet clarified their intentions as to the UX layer and applications. If they haven't, that's understandable. If they have, then I'd like to know so I'm able to supply the correct information when questions arise.
Either way, I'm very, very happy about this project.

That was an interesting read. Thank you!
Sounds like there are plans to enable MeeGo for Maemo5 after all, and with double boot and everything! I'm impressed!

What is the full version number and name of these kernels ?
Do they build the same ? Can one enable the same kernel options ?
Thanks

Just one question. When you talk about opening closed components are we talking about stuff like functionality of the phone app and battery management?
With this kind of commitment hopefully we will be rewarded with an open and active platform.
I think Nokia have earned major brownie points with this.
Now I am excited.
Definitely time for cake.

Please remember that MeeGo is about open source os, and product decisions for Nokia will be made by another people / scope.
Personally I feel that it is too early now to talk about MeeGo as productized platform for N900.

As you go on to other communities, remember to build them around politeness, respect, trust and humility. Be wary of poisonous people and deal with them before they end up killing your community.. Seen it happen to too many IRC channels, forums, open source projects.
