In a conference held by Nokia, Nemein and the Hildon Foundation, Nokia has offered to help economically in the process of migration. The details for starting the migration are under discussion.
Nokia is already working with the Hildon Foundation in a legal document to cover the transferring process of maemo.org assets. While this document is being reviewed and completed, the migration process of services should take place during the month of December.
Nokia is willing to provide any help in the transference of maemo.org and all of it's assets to the Hildon Foundation. To accomplish that, Nokia will pay the cost of buying the physical servers needed by the Hildon Foundation to ensure the survival of maemo.org after the migration from Logica. Nokia has also offered to pay for the cost of the migration. The Hildon Foundation will be responsible for hosting costs at Nemein beginning in 2013.
The details are being worked out by Nemein and the Hildon Foundation.

It's the least they could do given all the frustration and hardship they've caused over the years.

Wait, so Nokia's actually going to buy the Maemo.org servers at Nemein?

Could we know how long would Nokia re-imburse Nemein for the servers?
The first post says:
So it means just for December 2012 Nokia will reimburse Nemein?

I should also add that the forum server and database is in the US, and we haven't decided yet if they will stay in the US or be exported to Nemein. There are considerations because the data privacy framework in EU is much different than US.

Edit: Asked to avoid details about the support in migration, so it's now just a generic statement.
