Yes and no. Nokia will be working on MeeGo, and the stuff that makes sense to bring over will be brought over. There are discussions on the MeeGo mailing lists to try and see how (copyright issues) we can merge valuable content from maemo.org to the MeeGo project.
This doesn't mean that what you are doing now will be lost. The expertise and knowledge that we display and share will definitely be re-usable, and will definitely be a big part of MeeGo. Don't think of this merger as "throw everything in the bin and start from scratch". Rather, "redecorate, fix the problems we have and move on".

It's up to contributors to define their own goals. maemo.org can't force anyone to do something specific, however the Council can guide the overall direction, and ensure that the handover will be as seamless as possible.
Bottom line: we can either work hand in hand, and make sure the content we produce is re-usable, or we can be narrow-minded geeks, and only think about our own little selves. Guess which one prevails in Open Source communities. |
