1.Cherry (aka MyNokia)
for sure not ;-P

2.Nokiamessaging
No, afaik it's dead

3.maesync
No idea what that does. Might be the "sync to other maemo device" in which case we probably want to keep it.

4.ActiveSync (for talking to MS email servers)
need? no. Nice to have? sure.

5.Support for SIM phonebook
Yes. But possibly not imlemented in the same way like original fremantle does. AFAIK currently only import to maemo addressbook is implemented. This could get done by a new "app" that operates by talking AT to modem and inserts records to the contactsdb

6.Device code lock
We probably should keep that, one way or another. Might work differently internally.

7.Startup wizzard (thing that runs on first start and sets the time and date and stuff)
Yes, why not. Seems it's a useful function. Implementation details subject to review and new definition.

8."About Product" control panel
Well, I guess some sort of "About product" should be there in settings anyway.


As a general rule / guideline think of our mantra in FPTF. And of the idea that ideally we want to run unpatched fremantle images on Neo900 - since that won't work, it's probably fair to say "we want as few patches as possible"

And I have to agree with wicket above, that RE != keep function resp support. That's particularly applicable for e.g. device lock, which should work with blob as long as we provide some sort of CAL, whatever it takes to do that. Same prolly applies to "About system".
