@godofwar424 Jolla is partners with Myriad. so that part is done. But I don't see them releasing a semi-official sailfish for the N9.
And for this community to bring dalvik to Meego Harmattan.... It would be stealing right?
also side question, anyone know would be the general hardware requirements of sailfish? if it was ported to the N9, would it be able to be run smoothly?

As much as agree with you mike, it does look like they are already testing on a variety of devices from their announcement.
Just check out the devices that they are holding at 3.30-4.00

Why do jolla have a team dedicated to porting sailfish to so many devices?
and...
If they are just for testing, why are they testing devices such hp touchpad and the Raspberry Pi?
Granyed I know that scalability can be a big selling point for any OS, so who are they selling to and what are their interests?

Also don't forget that showing the UI of some OS on some arbitrary device is an entirely different thing from supporting all the hardware (e.g. telephony) of that device. There's binary-only drivers involved which (in most cases) are diffcult if not impossible to work around.
So don't hold your hopes up too high for fully supported 3rd party devices (officially nor inofficially).

Install Nemo first and then when the sailfish UI sources are available just build that on top of Nemo. That should do it

Saying that, if Jolla are partners with Dalvik AND the N9 gets a semi-official sailfish OS port from Jolla, then we could have the android app compatability
Well Nokia do at least know how to build a decent phone, just apparently don't know how to support it..
