Yes. And you should only update if you do not have CSSU.

Well, without meaning any disrespect for the CSSU team, this update is coming from NOKIA.

CSSU will integrate this patch on their system, which is of course *also* a good thing.

Since I don't use CSSU, all I can say is thank you Nokia!

[BEGIN RANT] perhaps CSSU should focus more on this kind of critical updates or bug fixes of existing tools (e.g. modest, browser), instead of this "obsession" with portrait mode.[END RANT]

RESPECT for your reading comprehension! This "patch" is already integrated in the CSSU, that's why we don't need to update. You should thank the community, not Nokia, since I bet someone from here influenced Nokia in releasing such a security patch. If Nokia released an update with new features, portrait mode, updated drivers, screen tearing fix, that's when you thank Nokia.

We should wait and see!
But I do not believe this update to Nokia

I would like to know if we will also have the image of this Update, so that we could directly flash the N900 ???
Thanks.

For once and all:
N900 is end of line. :-(

Nokia only delivers one security update and I somehow have the feeling that this is a favour of a tiny group at Nokia.

So thank this group and CSSU-team (I do not use CSSU currently)
and do not spread unnecessary and false rumors.

Who and how was contacted by Nokia? Was it the council as a Maemo community representative who was contacted? Or it was someone which has personal relations with Nokians?

The council was contacted and and I was cc'd.
@nokia.com addresses sent the email.
This was over a month ago and we were asked not to go public in case the update didn't happen.

The fixes on gitorious will be in it, yes, a CSSU update is still that.
