Sure, it's good to have choices but this implies more work for everybody. A priority list would help at least.

How about adding support for the Nokia PC Suite? It is already done for the Maemo 5.

Synchronisation with Outlook, SyncML etc have been requested from day 1.

Both options are being pursued, we just need some people to step up and lead the SSU one.

Any volunteers interested in seeing it happen should hop to it, as the ball isn't in Nokia's court at the moment.

As others said, those aren't mutually exclusive. But thanks for asking :-)

I would vote for giving priority to enabling community Diablo updates first, then moving all available resources to Mer. Rationale: Mer isn't stable/complete enough for end users and probably won't be for a while. On the other hand there's a growing set of Diablo patches sitting in bugzilla which solve real problems and could be packaged and distributed to willing users.

Now, the good news is that there is very little Nokia needs to do to enable the community to go ahead with this (see also Andrew's post here).

IMHO the only blocker is the lack of clarity on Nokia's intentions regarding releasing more official Diablo SSUs. We know there are internal fixes for various bugs that have not been released yet (eg bug 3830, about which someone was asking right here earlier today or bug 3793 which is a crash/critical bug). It would be nice to have these, but at this point it would seem more productive to declare Diablo officially unsupported and move on. And maybe at some future time Nokia may even publish those updates to the community repository :-)

I of course would like to see the current, fixed OS2008 RTComm Beta pushed into the core of the system, rather than a complex secondary install that involves going to Red Pill mode (!)

Pick it up and run with it. Organize people, talk to Nokia, get the necessary patches gathered up. You could be mentoring if you want this to happen.
