Many people have lost faith because of the limitations it has and after such a long time.
I want to see meego succeed where Maemo failed and i am serious about this.
I said to you before about the N9 and i meant what i said in that everyone who buys the N9 will have expectations of meego from there on and if the adaption does not match the meego installs of the N9 then it will fail miserably.
This is not a dig in any way it is a request for a better meego experiance for the N900 and i wish you and stskeeps all the best with this and just hope it pulls through this time.

Will this be limited to the N900? Limited to Nokia products?

It's probably also possible to get it booting on a larger range of devices, since Mer (unlike MeeGo) is building for a much wider range of architectures, not just armv7

Thumbs up for this project.
Hope to see you guys take full advantage of MeeGo CE's work. Love the fact that Qt is onboard.

All times are GMT. The time now is 18:11.
Those around who might remember Mer - Maemo Reconstructed - a project/proposal to open up Maemo with open software and an open way of working.. well, it's back, this time as MeeGo Reconstructed, aiming at continuing MeeGo and ultimately becoming MeeGo 2.0.
It aims at keeping & continuing the best parts of MeeGo while doing away with the worst parts and adding some new bits on top, like making it much easier to port to new devices.
Those interested in participating or asking questions, feel free to pop into #mer on freenode!
I look forward to seeing my N900 running the MeeGo UX on top of Mer in the near future.
