  • Defocus on Maemo-related devices, expand on anything mobile running "mainline" Linux. This covers Maemo (including Harmattan), MeeGo, Tizen, Mer.
  • Focus on Nokia's Linux-based open devices. This is a superset of #1, but leaves the door open for whatever else Nokia might have brewing, if Linux is actually exposed (porting S40 to a Linux kernel doesn't count)

not visible (i think) is a 1½ option...
NOKIA releases more Maemo devices, with or without the "MeeGo" co-label
rather then another Harmattan device, an OS2013 one.
in which case the future of Maemo.org can be pretty much unchanged compared to what it was before the MeeGo related cession
