Not one positive comment. Not one. Well played, Intel!

My reply

Wow you're right and most of them seem like developers.
To summarize their negative feedback:

1) The name is horrible and does not sound like an OS name

2) Dropping QT is completely a flunk and fail and too early

3) HTML5 is not ready yet to replace QT (and this OS should keep both)

4) Timing of announcement is suspect as major partner (Samsung) is competitor to Nokia which has the newest meego handset (N9) selling very well and receiving very good reviews.
"Over the next couple of months, we will be working very hard to make sure that users of MeeGo can easily transition to Tizen, and I will be working even harder to make sure that developers of MeeGo can also transition to Tizen."

ROTFL! I am sure N9xx CE team are intrested to move over to Tizen. Personally I dont think soo....

I really hope they goes Maemo CE or MER instead!!!

To me it's seems like Nokia fighting for that MeeGo brand backfired a bit. Should have just gone for Maemo, what the MeeGo 1.2 (Harmattan) really is afterall.
That said Nokia has been very quiet about calling the OS a MeeGo other than on it's dev page.

While i don't think anything would have changed on the bigger picture going for MeeGo seems to have created the same result as turning Symbian into open source Symbian Foundation.

Open source not looking good at all on the current light.

Well, YLE News tells, that Nokia is actually going announce something tomorrow morning at 10AM local time (Astrum Center, Salo). Instead of Maemo 7 they are probably cutting more jobs in Finland.

I mean really. Was that a surprise? I hoped to see a real good lift for openness following Nokia's lead... But, as always, time will tell.

Some awkward limitations with Mango's WiFi hotspot
http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/new...strictions.ars
I wonder how N9's WiFi hotspot compares, does it have a 5-person limit like Mango?

Nokia has plans to cut 1400 jobs in Finland, so I guess quite many Salo factory workers have to go. Letīs hope not the whole factory

What stores would that be? The shops here have delivery date the third or so, IIRC.

The N9 wifi hotspot is just the juikospot, but renamed... I dont know if there is a 5 person limit like mango.

Nokia WILL support MeeGo, just in case there were any doubts:
