If as you suggest, he is getting away with being rude, then the only reason that is happening is because people choose to moan about him and disrupt a thread instead of using the REPORT button.
I have reported him on several occasions, resulting in his not being restrained. And by the way, your implication that abill_uk gets away with it because people don't report his rudeness is beyond absurd.
My intuitioin tells me that no amount of 10$ donation can help us hire a Programmer. But somebody (proffessional programmer) please help me out with the math...
1. How much is the going rate for a decent programmer for an hour?
2. How many hours will it take to....say, write a fully featured open source replacement for the Calender?
How much money do we need to actually make this a feasible option?
I'm wondering if we as maemo community could get Myriad Alien Dalvik and how much would Myriad AG want for that?
Maybe I should address this question to maemo council.

We could try, but i highly doubt we could get the necessary sum for it. Also, i highly doubt Myraid would want to mess with a "community" for a Nokia device under nokia nose.
However, if they agree, i guess people here will be willing to donate much more then just 10 bucks. I can see myself parting from 100$ for this ability.
I'm also willing to donate much more than $10 for that. I think we (council) should contact Myriad AG, because there is nothing to lose. We can all (maemo.org and Myriad AG) benefit from such deal.
i was thinking this money would be to upkeep the domain name and stuff like that if nokia decide to shut it down. if its for that then yeah in a heartbeat, or as long as it takes me to get onto paypal
