I think we've got to the point where we... 100% agree
I'm careful about being too optimistic, but considering latest "high pitch" in cooperation, I got strong feeling that we're finally starting to have enough room for utilizing available resources (people's enthusiasm and actual do-work included).
It means, that we can focus on fully using actual potential - at the same time, creating every thing needed for 100% self-governed entity, as a natural (not enforced) process - and, if, at some point, we feel that self-governing would actually
do
give us benefits "now", we can proceed. It's nice, to have possibility of deciding via meritocratic means of available-resources/room for improvement values, rather than doing it as "critical fix" for actual road-blocker issues.
So, As I've said in other thread - I'm optimistic, and if cooperation is going to look so good as it started to in last (short, but promising) period, there is no need to hurry - haste can be replaced with proper planning and "backstage" preparation.

Yet, I'm also convinced that - even in situation of best cooperation - we should keep a backup plan. Considering current financial problems, I can easily imagine situation, where Nokia does radical thing to avoid going bankrupt / just goes bankrupt / is practically bought by other company, which may render current promises (stability of financing, 6 months-before information about further status, etc) "obsolete".
Of course, it's bad case scenario - this bugger was announced to be dead many times before - I'm not expecting it very soon,
nor wishing it
(someone could say "not anymore
"), yet we must count it as possible situation, and get prepared accordingly to actual risk.
