Henri Bergius, Michael Hasselmann and myself just had some beers here in Mountain View (CA, USA). It was a coincidence and we celebrated it.

Of course maemo.org came to the discussion and Henri had a very good point: pages like http://maemo.org/intro/ or http://maemo.org/development/ have been unchanged for years and now they don't reflect anymore the community that exists here.

Updating these pages would require to think what is this website and this community today, and what does it want to become. It sounded like a good task to be driven by a newly elected Council. Six months is a decent period for discussion, planning and implementation considering that we are talking basically about editing plain web pages.

In our discussion we agreed that maemo.org is still strong in the mobile user aspect. It is a community continuously active since 2005, open to discuss, experiment and collaborate on Maemo but also on related mobile topics where "related" can have a flexible definition.

Qt Project and Mer Project sounded like natural neighbors, one appealing more to application developers and the other one more to platform developers. Perhaps a nice neighborhood relationship can be built between these communities and others alike.

There is a lot of experience around: where does this community want to head in the future? How tied or flexible wants this community to be to Maemo as it is described still today in the maemo.org Intro and related pages? Does it make sense to think of "Maemo" as just a name, with a history but also a future? What are you missing out there that maemo.org could provide? What would be the element that today would make this community stick together and evolve further?
