Maemo Community is where you come to learn, to communicate, to meet new people (even some are arseholes type but it's a minority), to share knowledge and to participate in creating or improving something good on the Maemo device. The community is not Nokia (even it is owned by Nokia) it is a community of people like you see in everyday despite from different places and spoken different languages.

But together we are a community, together we can give the dying maemo5 a new hope even though it won't be for eternity but atleast for some years to come. This is what this community can do to the N900's future.

Hmm... then there is no answer that will satisfy the FUD slingers until Nokia finally speaks out.

But it also means that those that believe Nokia will continue support past PR1.3 are subscribing to some blind faith too.

So the middle of the road would be sit, wait and hope that development continues; or if things change Nokia will alert us in a timely manner.

Agree?

Easily. This thread, like its brethren, is a mix of opinionated conjecture, wishful thinking, naysaying and space-wasting. I would have closed it pages ago but it's given people (yet another) place to vent. That said, many posts are flirting with the infracture system. Why do people insist on testing it?

People insist on finding the edge of the rules and testing the limits in all aspects of life.

However, I feel as if that this is an area that, if Nokia communicated with people properly, the FUD and the believers would be relegated to truly outrageous discussions and treated as such.

Being a fan shouldn't mean blind faith. Being a person that questions shouldn't relegate those questions to "troll" or "FUD slinger" status either. And I'm only interested in what's known, not what's speculated. No answers about lack of development after PR1.3. Or no answers about continued development after PR1.3.

In this thread there are no answers, only opinion. And for me, that's a waste of time. Either way, for or against Nokia in this thread... 100% waste o' time.

All said above... is merely my opinion.

The important part will be how this community picks up the pieces and supports this excellent OS. My "hope" will be invested there.

:eek::eek::eek:
Who is sue and is she part of the "community?"

(PS - I think, in addition to quelling FUD with some references and links, and debating the opinions with more civility, we all need to also lighten up some.)

Not by me. And for the record, I don't list abill_UK as one of the people that are asking questions.

No, not you-- new guy a page or two back.

You know, if I had the time I'd merge this and 100 similar threads into one big meta thread. But it would probably melt the server...

The Official End All, Say All Thread O' Doom has a serious nice ring to it.

Would be nice if this board also supported subtitles for threads too. I mean, it could say "Abandon Faith All Ye' Enter This Thread..."...

Do it. Server be damned.
