This is interesting news, but even more is the coming discussion of the what this real means in the real world. What will this little project cost, what could we expect or even better what's Not expect.. Some people seems like they are up in the air 
great news indeed. But what is this really?
Noone here knows. Please take a step back and look the facts /news presented again please.

There will no doubt be closed bits in the platform. One way of keeping people aboard over several device launches would be to allow a trusted group of community developers working under NDAs to update those closed bits so that legacy devices aren't left with a load of WONTFIXes, or FIXED IN $NEXT RELEASEs.
*[Maybe you could poach qgil for the community liaison role - but please wait until maemo.org has at least managed to secure what it needs to complete it's transition].

This^ Some solid ideas.
I just hope they dont continue to call it MeeGo, ugh, please dear God no.
They won't go into any more detail than that at THIS stage.
I followed their feed very closely for quite some time, & saw nothing to fully validate that.
I guess that should be outlined in much more detail & picked over, then we can give the answers you're seeking.
*i.e. the bits that have proven to work (mostly) well

If they have hardware parteners why would they ask for donations? I\d buy their product if I could but I wouldn't donate with just the promise of a meego device.

<SNIP>They will have product out this year and will inform more in coming weeks, that's about it for now.

Like the Maemo community ?

Some updates:
Python & PySide support
I asked about Python support on the Jolla IRC channel. It seems that as long it works on Mer, it should be no issue. There are actually already quite a few buildable PySide RPM Mer packages on COBS.

Great points jalyst. Nothing is confirmed. Wait for confirmations guys. Almost no facts or information is available. Neither is there any clear information chanals yet. still a lots of people claiming lots of stuff as truth.

Would something like his work be of interest to the Jolla team?

I've noticed that the maemo.org wiki doesn't get as many contributions as it did pre-Harmattan days and I think fragmentation could be one of the reasons for that.
