IM sitting in the car, surfing on n800 through someone's router. Reading this with much joy. I noticed tht Bora dir's are updated, 4th of July. no new files yet.
NO Skype in my repositories?
I've to get home... i Feel strange sitting in the car surfing, but its fun though.
Most software companies publish a release date and then modify it as needed. I just get a little tired of the cute game of suggestions as to when it might be out. This forum is a great place for Nokia to officially say what they are working on and what holdups they might encounter. Although I am not a programmer, I love to hear a company that can give you some insight into what they are doing. What could be a better audience for that than a forum like this? Motivated owners of your product that have been known to beta test for you and tend to solve problems on their own. I just wish they would participate more in our conversations here on the forum in a much more official capacity. There is my $.02, for what it is worth. I am certainly looking forward to playing with Skype on my N800.
I would guess that if the skype app was showing up briefly in existing bora repos one would assume that its gonna run on the current ITOS for the N800 ?
That is unless y'all setup chinook repos already ?
As I've said elsewhere, I'd be very surprised (and, as a developer, disappointed) if the next firmware was based on Chinook (i.e. Maemo 4.0).
Bora is the codename for all Maemo 3.x releases, which should include the next firmware update.
However, remember Rhapsody was a separate application, but still came along with a firmware upgrade.
