Some reasons to have Mer/Nemo (SDK) image running in chroot on Nokia N9/N950 :
- compiling & packaging on Harmattan SDK chrooted on N9 is fast, sometimes faster than on PC, sometimes not so slower;
- simpler to install than Mer/Nemo SDK on PC;
- simpler than running Mer/Nemo on multi-boot on N9/N950;
- freedom to develop anywhere, using any PC via ssh to develop for Mer/Nemo, without complex and large Mer/Nemo SDK installations;
- because we, Maemo & MeeGo Harmattan users & developers, can, others can't

Ok. But I will also invite Mer/Nemo people to participate here in this TMO Nemo Mobile section.
