It's sad news but unfortunately necessary.

Nokia has been needing this for a long time - a shake-up in management to get the company re-invigorated and ready for the challenges for next year.

Believe me the Directors that do leave will usually be handsomely rewarded as per their contract terms.

Hmm, perhaps new guy met old guy and clashed.

Old guy thought "F--k this ****."

It seems to me that there has also been a shakeup in volunteers as well, such as qwerty12. I don't see how the combination can be good.

I wonder why Jaaksi resigned?
Who will replace hem? Peter Skillman? Or will he continue to be the VP of MeeGo User Experience and Services? Was that a newly created function? Or will he now be head of VP of MeeGo Devices and MeeGo operations?

I would have been happy to see a Meego device out and then the management changes happening.

changes happenning even before a launch (even though I understand that by now the project must be in a tight schedule and frozen timelines) This somehow does not bode well for a project. Firstly it means there are some uncertainties and push-and-pulls around the final decisions of the project. Just seems like bad timing.
Anyway hope Meego will do well with all the others like Peter and Quim Whom we know and the rest o f the old and the new team carrying on with the flag.

maybe im psychic for predicting that meego wont be working properly for a long time after release date either,
or maybe i just know nokia all too well!
if you look at the news section, i think there is a bit about meego.
meego 1.1 will be a pile of ****.
thankfully nokia is using 1.0 for the first cut and doesn't have the problems associated with 1.1...apparently.

i think this means 1.1 is essentially a dev build (one developers cant use, from what i can see....bizarre!)

i never warmed to him to tell the truth he always came across as arrogant to me.
also he was always very evasive when asked reasonable questions, not what you want from the top open source guy
