Considering the timeline, I think this must be for Harmattan, not Fremantle... But maybe I'm wrong?
I'm guessing the Nokia modem plugin is going to be a closed source binary. But that still leaves a lot of amazing openness.

But I also want to know if I should buy a new phone (because my old one is in a bad shape) or wait for the n900 to make my gsm calls.

Just looking at that diagram tells me this is a major announcement, but Ofono.org's about page still leaves me (as an end user) with some questions, such as:
What new end user features and functions will this stack enable?
What features and functions currently provided by the Linux kernel and existing telephony apps is Ofono intended to replace, augment or improve?
I suspect this annoucement will generate a lot of debate within the developer circles, but since this was posted under General category it would be nice to see also human readable explanations and speculation.
