I feel that if anyone should come on this thread and give us all a good explanation it should be texrat as he is normally a fair and good guy.
BUT his last few blogs have been about MeeGo so i guess he is really keen on that subject right now but never the less he is the one that could throw some light on all this in my opinion.

much appreciated, indeed.
i think there's been a lot of harsh words about the community written here that aren't warranted. To a certain extent you get as much out of the community as you put in. And really, if you have concerns over the council or it's direction then please consider putting your nomination forward for the next elections (which won't be far away). Candidates are always sought after.
i could list you quotes from my own post highlighting how unconvinced i am about comities, but that would of course just provide ammunition to those who keep posting that i'm nothing but a troll.
so, i'll be honest, i already posted the link on the thread before, so did abill, rather then going down the OS200x path, i'm looking into the arch option.
i don't believe NOKIA will let us down early, simply because it would damage their image as a trustworthy manufacturer much more then pulling out of Symbian or even not producing as much N9s as the world would like to buy.
what i'm more worried about is that the wp adventure goes so badly wrong that Dell or HP or IBM or whatever IT company which feels the need to make a quick entry in the "mobile market" grabs the shares, takes over the Intellectual Property and sells the HW to some Chinese manufacturer.
that would make the situation sort of real tight, i think.
though we might actually get our so much wanted source code
hoping for the best, planning for the worst...
PS: what is my karma? i know the concept in Indian religion, but don't quite see how it translates here?
PPS: how many ppl on Maemo.org do have a karma > 100?
dito > 10?

As it says on the wiki, posts on here only count after linking your maemo.org profiles. If you havent already done it, you can find out here.
You can check your current karma on your profile

the karma didn't change, which i was sort of expecting as i haven't developed or tested anything yet.
1st reaction was actually "where would i have a karma from, if not from my posts ?!?"
and as i pointed out earlier, even though i sincerely hope that business will continue as usual for any foreseeable future, i'm going to spend time on testing new OSS replacements for closed components rather then developing of testing stuff within the semi-closed environment right now :-{
respectively contribute to set up such an environment, 1st ¦:-}

We can bring Maemo to Meego if you will, but we shouldn't leave Maemo behind. Likewise, all the love going into the CSSU should serve to help the Cordia project.
We keep in touch with CSSU devs and synchronize often.
Ideally Cordia will run the same Hildon codebase as CSSU.
