What is this thread doing in the MeeGo / Harmattan subforum, I don't know. How a discussion among smart and passionate people sharing so much can go so surreal and off-topic, I don't know either. What I know is that your willingness to help Nokia and Lumia could be well invested in better ways. For instance promoting Lumia among potential Nokia customers. Most people here are actual Nokia customers, please let them enjoy their preferred Nokia devices.


PS: I work at Nokia in the Developer Relations team, mainly as community manager of http://qt-project.org but also active here. My long term focus is the Next Billion strategy I'm sure you have heard of. What many people here see with antagonism is actually complementary in the Nokia strategy and daily work. I just talked about your passion here to my colleague John Kneeland, who focuses on Lumia and Windows Phone ---> https://twitter.com/#!/SirKneeland Contact him, he can put you on exciting tracks promoting these products and everything behind them.

Quite frankly when someone is deliberately trolling, they are often just doing it for kicks, so can you really tell that he is passionate about Lumia products and not just trying to get a reaction (and succeeding), surely as someone who presumably cares about Nokia (since you still work for them) you want people who will represent your company well and not piss people off.

What I winder (lol, iPad autocorrect), however, is why a super smart, Lumia guy like yourself is doing here...I mean us dumbasses who can navigate the linux shell, perl scripts and vi aren't smart enough to understand your wisdom and we certainly could never grasp W7 or iOS, so why do you waste your time on us?

Referring to danramos as dummramos and many others as Taliban seems ok with you, whereas you may think he is / could be actually promoting WP/Lumias semi-professionally enough to refer him to your colleague? I'm sorry and i appreciate your work for the community, but now i finally think you either lost your sense for appropriate reactions / reality, or are being simply too diplomatic, in an UN way. This is sad.
