this 1.0 img is without graphics ui, did i get it right? is only 2megas? wow! will an USB keyboard work since n800īs donīt get a slide keyboard one? Since i should install it to run tests (if it is compatible to n800) what shoud be the best way to provide feedback to you and install on it? other things, here we are at maemo.org community, but meego.com is growning and have their own forum, wiki, etc. If we start posting this subject here, can it be a way to the meego project see this iniciative more atached to their project and be more supportive? |

Along those lines, since you say that MeeGo in your personal opinion has most future does that mean that Nokia is supporting Mer and if not then why is Mer being worked on if MeeGo in your opinion is a more plausible OS option? I'm sorry to sound 'bitter' but honestly the lack of focus ('Mer for N8xx', 'No wait, we're also doing Mer for N900', 'No wait Mer is dead now it's Mer2 that will come', 'Oh wait. no MeeGo on N8xx is better') is indeed rather tiring and has become one huge disappointment. If your job, as you mention above, is to start development of things in the community I think you've done that. But if you going forward expect people to beta test, etc you might also want to think about sticking to a project. |

And it's not just limited to new tech/etc introducing changes, just *doing* some of this stuff teaches lessons that force plans and other things to change in order to remain relevant and realistic. While I wasn't actively around for the earlier days of Mer, I've enjoyed watching it - and the people involved with it - evolve to meet the challenges of the growing requirements. So no. It hasn't -yet- produced something of shipping quality, but I don't think there's been a better road to go along to learn how to get things done, and I remain hopeful that MeeGo will help to produce a stable and productive base platform for use on a wide variety of devices, including older NITs. |

At least, not enough care enough to spend time making it happen. As an example: How much time have you personally put into Mer silvermountain? Either development, docs, supporting others .. that kind of thing? Probably not a lot - and that's fine, it's a volunteer thing :) However, if not enough people volunteer then.... it doesn't happen. It turns out that Merm as originally conceivedm was too hard for just a few core devs to deliver and, IMHO, the maemo community didn't engage enough. Oh, and if you find it disappointing that it wasn't delivered then how disappointing do you think it is when you spend literally months of your life non-stop, 12+hours a day, 7 days a week working on a project and people typically say "Isn't it ready yet? Oh, I can't code, sorry." (I do sometimes wonder if it will come as a surprise to many of those people to find that coders learn to code by doing research and working at it!) Anyhow... Meego, by contrast, is much more open and reduces the effort needed to get the N8x0 up and running. There should be a reference UI too - lots of things to make it easier. |
