I have difficulty believing that if we have difficulty gaining more than five candidates for the Community Council, that it'll be easier finding people with enough drive, vision, time and skill to run a non-profit legal entity doing what the council does and a whole lot more.

Well, IMO you're swapping reason and effect here. From my point of view, we had difficulties to gain more than five candidates, *because* we're not self-governed entity, = Council doesn't have (almost) any real tools, at least in current approach. Even description of "what Council is meant for" are - most of the times - quite "philosophical", instead of practical.
At the same time, negative "emotions" are thrown on Council every time something isn't as it should be - no matter if Council had chance to change that, or not. Thus, no surprise, that not many people want to take up that volunteer role.
The problem is, that You can't be half-virgin, half-pregnant.

In case someone else is waiting for the logs/minutes from the last tuesday's council meeting you can find the raw irc logs here:

As for the actually question for this thread: How is the council <-> community communication done nowadays? for me it seems that is not really happening. Sorry for ranting but IMO one of the council's most important tasks is left undone. namely "making sure that one portion of the community knows what is going on in another". I'm really hoping the next council holds transparency, etc. in high value.

Thanks for posting the log. To be clear, 2/3 of the Council is not even around, including the person who was responsible for running the meetings, logs, etc. I try to answer and communicate things.

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
information is a necessary though no sufficient condition to rationality...
