WP seems to be gaining from this, but most of all Apple seems to be unstoppable. Who would have thought 3 years ago that single plus 500 euros smartphone could ever have such a hold on smartphones.

I think all he means by "on par" is just that, roughly on par.
There's still an internal, more "bleeding-edge" build...
Which we'll see not long after widespread availability of the N9.
It'll probably be pushed to N950 & SDK then too....
It makes sense for both devices to have the same firmware, otherwise how can you test reliably before submitting applications to the Nokia Store. I wouldn't be too happy with Nokia if I submitted an application that worked perfectly on my N950, only to find that it didn't work as expected on the N9.
The Beta2 firmware is pretty stable, so I wouldn't get too hung up on the 'beta' label. If mece is correct, the 'beta' label is simply a result of the removal of a few trivial components.

Is it worse than Gargale, Fremantle, Harmattan etc. (which are equivalents)?
Most likely the marketing name will be something we know already (Maemo, Meego, S40).
Previous references to Meltemi seem to indicate either S40, or tablet-targetted, but definitely Qt, and supposedly an organisation that can make use of people who were working on Meego.

(/me can't remember the codename of the Meego-based project that would follow Harmattan ... what was it?).

Seemed way longer ago than that, then again so much has been happening.

I wouldn't be too happy with Nokia if I submitted an application that worked perfectly on my N950, only to find that it didn't work as expected on the N9.
And some devs were arguing -rather effectively- that it wasn't necessarily relevant, I can't recall their exact reasons why now.
But I concede once one gets to the point of actually releasing apps to the store, it matters much more...
So I guess they must've finalised their internal build, & begun shipping, just before pushing out that similar build to the N950.

From what I've heard 34-1 is the final N9 firmware. The N950 "beta2" is 34-2 which is newer than 34-1. In practice it's the same firmware with some applications and plugins stripped away. Why they did that, I have no idea. Perhaps some legal reasons.

The free app store for Harmattan (apps.formeego.org) is confirmed to continue as planned.
