The petition is going to the wrong people.
It's Microsoft that took ownership of Nokia's former mobile assets like Symbian, Series 30, and Meego. Of course we know that just recently, HMD (a new Finnish company backed by French private equity) then ended up buying some of the former Nokia assets that Microsoft owned (Series 30 and the feature phones business). No mention was made of Meego or Symbian transferring to them - so you would have to imagine that this technology is still Microsoft owned.
Folks, you need to let Maemo/Meego go. Neither are coming back.

Just let us hope that Nokia will listen to us to I love Meego even though I wish they could revive the Monster Maemo.
Meego is good with a powerful gear it will way Android.

I would say that the likelihood of seeing another Meego/Maemo phone is roughly exactly as likely as resurrecting a saber-tooth tiger.
