hi abill!

sorry, read your post (a couple times too), have some thoughts about it, doubts and all, but actually lost "the clarity"
Timoph was very helpful on the A significant day in community governance? thread and from other threads w/ N900 users asking for help, the community seems to be okay...
only, n000 tried to start a fight on the Community governance thread (big surprise...) and was nicely put back to his place by Timoph :D

think it is important to distinguish between the real community, ppl who develop or simply want to help and, well, the warmongers...

as always, it isn't fair to throw everybody in the same basket :eek:

different prices?
yes, of course; wealthier nations get a higher price, poorer countries a lower one.
doesn't only have to do w/ the "price"; it is also influenced by the salaries & fixed costs a business has to face in the different countries. that's usually referred to as "income parity" if you'd like to look into it...

Ok points noted and i respect what your saying, i am just a little bit to say the least peed off at the war mongers of this community and the biggest culprit is ysss for sure because i am tracking all his movements on here so intill he is either stopped or got rid of it will only continue.

Can you do me a favour and pm me your email? i want to share some information on this N9 news so you know all.

I will for sure get the prices for the 2 different models ie the 16gb and 64 gb on friday this week from Nokia direct and will post them on here.

well we at least achieved something in that we got the counsil talking and what a suprise (not) that they give us some news that we already knew then put in a comment about all of a sudden they will talk to Nokia ..... i am now going to sit back and watch what happens on here but i say the same thing that the current council needs to kick into gear.

What i really want to say i will hold back... for now.

Talking amongst yourself will not get anything done. Petitions, same.

That's just not how things get done.

I didn't ***** about anything. What have you done for Maemo/MeeGo today?

Fancy colorization of aforesaid logos does not count.

"I know what's best for this community. Everyone should listen to me."

"If the naysayers will just shut up, then I can be heard better. Then people will listen to me."

"You guys should be listening to me because I'm older than everyone here."

"Nokia is doomed unless they listen to me."

"Maemo is doomed unless they listen to me."

"MeeGo is doomed unless they listen to me."

"The Community is doomed.... unless they listen to me."

....

"I'm right.... right?"
