Facilitating community discussions to Nokia, and vice versa. The council have also picked up facilitating discussions within the community to try and prevent waste.

This was a commercial decision. Whether it's a sensible one we'll find out. However, the Maemo Community Council has never been involved in the governance or direction of Maemo as a product; just as a community.
