In one word: yes.

That's the latest diablo update. Diablo is basically the first OS for Maemo that allowed significant updates to the OS without requiring a reflash. Its predacessor, Chinook still required you to reflash your OS thus losing all your installed applications.

Not very likely by Nokia, but almost certainly by the community at some point (possibly some point soon).

Any idea if it will be a SSU update or are you referring to something else? (Mer maybe)

A community-built and supported SSU update.

sharing resources with the mer project im guessing?

tho i would guess its unable to fix that annoying niggle in the networking system that makes it unable to autoconnect to known wifi from offline/flight mode, as said system is closed source...

Only through similar people being involved in both projects.

Well, if Nokia's got a fix waiting for deployment, we could certainly deploy it. If, however, it hasn't been fixed yet, then no.

i think its tagged as fixed in fremantle, but then only because they basically rewrote the whole system...

so no...

Yes and no. Yes, Nokia is still developing Maemo. No, the next release of Maemo will not be called OS2009, but Maemo 5.

I'm assuming you mean "Nokia or Maemo", which is, unfortunately, a rather nonsensical question as Maemo is Nokia.

Please see the LinuxDevices article on the announcement at the Summit and the Fremantle roadmap.
