IMO the council could stand to try listening without a ready rebuttal sometimes. It's difficult, but often necessary.
Yes occasionally

It's not that community isn't an option, mailing lists are options, forums are options. It seems to me that the forums are visited by the most people and therefore the best way to communicate to the most people. Thats all I am saying. I am not saying -community is not option.

Great so why are we debating this? Please can you identify how this will happen, who the players are? is it just Reggie? What technical hurdles are involved and do we expertise within the community to help move this forward? These are the things I want to hear, and if they are happening, how can we give greater visibility to these type of things to help them get accomplished faster?

Not sure what you mean, can you elaborate?

I joined maemo.org and then the Garage in order to report a bug 2 years ago, The bug was fixed 3 updates and a version change later, it was also closed at least once without resolution.
Interesting, do we have some numbers to put to this? How many active members of ITT vs active members of the mailing lists?
When I first went to the site 2 years ago my browser would report that the sites web certificates were not up to date or bogus. I would have to disable my browsers security policy every time I visited the maemo.org or Garage sites.
To me it appeared that you guys just didn't care.
After 2 years some of these problems still exist. qgil pointed me to a thread that was opened now that we are all one big happy family. I posted about maemo.org's cookie handling and was pointed to a bug that I could vote on...
After 2 years you guys are still voting on something as important to your image as how your website behaves?
So yes, I have often wondered how many people felt that disabling their browsers security settings wasn't worth it... If I didn't have a bug to report, I know I wouldn't have bothered... and until the recent aquisition I hadn't been back since.
BTW, the link I was directed to is broken.
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=285974&postcount=6
Is there another system in place to report that?
My question to the Council would be this:
If a thread was posted on the forum proposing that IRC should be changed or even discontinued and the consensus of the forum members was "Yes" would the forum only response have as much weight as an IRC only one?
I hope the answer is no to either scenario. I also hope that the Council remembers that this was not always the case.

If you are referring to the Bug link in the post, take the space after the single slash out of that link.

The webpage cannot be found
HTTP 404
Most likely causes:
What you can try:
- There might be a typing error in the address.
- If you clicked on a link, it may be out of date.
Retype the address.
Go back to the previous page.
Go to and look for the information you want.

2 years ago, maemo.org was Nokia owned and operated, now it is community owned and operated

As for changes, proposals about Talk all end up going through Reggie (the owner and operator). He is the ultimate decider here.
