Good point. I guess I was primarily thinking of a "Save Maemo from disappearing" site where device owners could talk about hacks, OS developments (like Mer), etc.

Maybe START with something like that but construct it in such a way that it could expand?

I may be the only one here that likes the fact that I can monitor and keep up with all that is happening in the world of maemo. To me it's like being at a Super Walmart.

depending on number of users, and number of users at one time anywhere between $25 and $250 a month. I know its a wide amount but if we are averaging a few dozen less then 100 users at a time I could get away with some good shared hosting plans from certain providers. If get to the point that their are hundreds of users at a time then it would require a dedicated server and then price would go into hundreds of dollars. Forgot to throw in things like vbulletin cost I think its either $195 or $285 depending on which version you got.

Voice of reason here for once, but first - It's our site. we were here first.

We don't need a seperate site, N8x0 and 770s are Maemo devices and the forums etc belong here at talk.maemo.org.

What we need is better organisation and seperation of the current forums.

The forums under the software section should be split and placed under the relevant OS/Platform section along with the hardware and other relevant forums. and the Active topics should be configurable so that relevant sections can be selected for monitoring.

comments?

There has already been such an initiative but it didn't move anywhere due to an incredible amount of bureaucracy and/or Reggie not being willing/able to.

It was overdue when it was asked for and now it has just continued to drag for so long that it's ridiculous. If there ever was a 'council' I have personally no idea what they were doing - making the forum a place for ALL device users was certainly not on top of their list.

The whole single-system sign-on debacle is another example of how this forum/site fails at doing anything in a timely (SSO..2 years now? 3?) manner - and when asked the reply is 'it's in the works'.

a linux tablet site would be great, and is going to happen, but for us nokia tablet users the itt archives here are indispensable, and therefore no one would need to worry about us ever completely abandoning maemo.org as long as they're here.

The Meego development may work in your favor since forward-looking people will leave here for there naturally leaving the legacy device users here.

Also, persuade AndrewfBlack and/or other people of like mind to run for council on such a platform.

I think that the real problem is the recent flood of new idiots here that try to drag you down to their level and then beat you up with their experience. *lol*
