Name one version of Maemo that's been fully opensourced.

Fun's fun, guys, but skip the politics as well as the slamming of other members. Use the Report tools, please-- and properly, I might add.

People seem to have issues finding figures on what's closed source and what's open source in Maemo5.

http://mer-project.blogspot.com/2010...-pr11-and.html

Read the article first, then see http://stskeeps.subnetmask.net/maemo...penness/pr1.1/

This is for PR1.1. The figures hasn't really changed much in PR1.2, except that MCE (a later version), a ofono-based telephony stack for N900 modem, camera-firmware and some other things were open sourced. Some bits previously under strict licensing are now redistributable binaries for non-commercial purposes (BME, wifi/bt firmware, pulseaudio codecs/filters for 3GPP compliance, wifi calibration) and redistributable binaries in general (3d drivers).

There are probably some other examples but jetlag keeps me from remembering.

I will wait and see where this goes but looking at the Poll it is obvious the N900 is far from dead and buried as far as the users are concerned.

wtf... you are such an hypocrit... you "fight" to open things... yet you dont share what you know... wow you amaze me abill...

there is a very good reason i did not share this but i have given many instructions on how to do.

The issue about Warranty and if you talk with Textrat he will tell you why i did not post complete pics etc.

Even to open your device voids warranty let alone touch it with a soldering station !.

PS please look at my posts on the usb thread and you will see the advice i have given to everyone.

I have explained this in previous comments to you, however you seem to lack reading skills.

I'm sure Nokia have a very good reason for not sharing too.
