This goes to show that perhaps Nokia were right that MeeGo couldn't assure them a place as one of the big three ecosystems:

However, Nokia's own documents show that while MeeGo is not going to be their lead platform anymore it is going to be the recipient of continued development, and that's ok for me.

I don't need to be part of a winning 'platform', i just want an open phone platform, and it looks like i will get it.
