I don't see the point in sending of a bunch of questions to Jolla to get some straight answers as I don't see them being more straight than allready stated from them.

It's a company and they will be kind of blured as they could change direction along the cause and if they promise/state something and in the end it won't be as stated alot will come whinning and moning about broken promises and stuff.

Why not just use the channels already provided and get your info there or better wait for the device to surface.

Regards Dousan...

Well it was suggested here by Ima, discussed further, & we've begun, so we may as well finish it.
Sounded like a sound idea in principle, we're the ones with the "gazillion" questions...
Of course they can't or won't answer many of them....
But if it clears up at least some of the misconceptions/concerns, then that's better than nothing.
I just wish this thread would be closed or merged into the main one already...

As per https://twitter.com/JollaMobile :
"Most of the Jolla OS will be open source, yes."
"The details about developer mode and device will be clarified in near future, thanks!"

Nobody ever promised something that is 100% open and it's been explained a billion times on this forum why it's so hard to be 100% open. If people still know better, they can try themselves.

Jolla phones: not so open

OK. That's fine with me.

End of story.

What do you mean by 'not so open'? Do you think maemo/meego are fully open? If yes, you are very, very wrong. I will give you some examples on the N900's maemo - camera app, music player, phone app, calendar and many many more are not open source.

PERSONALLY What I need from a 'open' phone is

1.Based on Linux
2.The ability to tweak files inside the phone, modifying system/settings files

and if jolla devices or any other newer OS doesn't offer me that ability I will stay with my N900, even if it has to be forever!

If I say it's open. Someone say it's not open.
If I say it's not open. Someone say it open.

It's not open and it's not closed.

blah-blah-blah

Are all your comments like that? Seriously, type something meaningful. Maybe some real sentences will do the trick.

Are you talking about me? Because I dont remember saying its fully open/closed.
