Somewhere around "This is a simple request to rename this forum.." - at that point I didn't find it credible that a Nokia employee would ask permission for that.

Do you think it was permission, or acceptance?

Think hard, now.

Honestly: Neither.

Regardless, I would not like the idea of anyone representing Nokia Corp coming in and wantonly changing structure at the .org, anyway (which Quim would not do).

EDIT: text clarified

And I guess he did come here and "asked".

I think I'll go and read some Aldous Huxley.

Sorry you think so, but I have been reading and listening since 3. No special "depth" needed to research, engage, or read.

I respect YOUR "depth", however, since you know a bit more about Maemo, so why not point out where I may be steering in t wrong direction. All I've said has been iterated by Nokia, Intel, Linux, and experts I assume are equipped with snorkels far better than each of us. My terminology may be off, but my concept of the situation is spot on, according to people close to this thing.

What can you add or clarify on what I've said?
