The two best assets that come to mind:

o The maemo.org community itself. This forum, and their members and knowledge.

o The Debian packaging system, which, seen from a developer point of view, is almost infinitely more flexible than the RPM based one. As long as you do only autobuild uploads there aren't many differences (it's basically what RPM always do, in a way), but for people like myself who builds locally and actually set up the configuration there's a big big difference.

Unfortunately the plan is apparently to throw the latter one out with the bath water. The former should be possible to salvage.

Quim, with the move to Linux Foundation and a new MeeGo bugzilla, can we expect to see more open discussion in public bugs from "internal" developers, and a much reduced dependence on the internal and very private Nokia defect tracking system?

One thing that Intel may bring to this party is their more open (as in less private) approach to defect tracking, which is long overdue.

No. 14 The ability to develop for N900/Maemo 5 under Mac OS X without a VM. (e.g. Qt + MADDE)

All the sensible VM options are paying ones under Mac, so I only started to play around w the development idea, when MADDE came.

So reading over the proposal (thanks for creating one!):

I'm seeing that nearly ALL of the members are affiliated with Maemo. While it is good for the Maemo community, will it cause any resistance from the Moblin community?

I'd be even more interested if I could edit it and add myself.

So these people are sort of the "Council" now then I guess?

No, the 'steering group' seem to be the nearest thing to the Council. Whoever they are.
