I was just disappointed with one thing. I bought the N9 a few weeks ago because I really wanted to continue this awesome OS, but never understood why no one started the job (before me...), but after looking at the source code I finally understood why : - The only free and open source code available in the Nokia N9 is the one provided by the Gnu/Linux developers, any byte of code developed by Nokia is under a proprietary license.

But that's another question.

I will probably send them a letter and see what happens and then compare the two.

Thanks for the two of you once again, and sorry for my horrible english :S
If you want to help the OS join the Mer/nemo project
