John Bloom recently attended Linux Fest Northwest and gathered some reactions of different people to Mer. What do people want to know when they hear about Mer?  
+
- Linux users with the G1 and iPhone were usually quite interested in the possibility of running Mer on their devices, especially in a dual-boot situation where they could revert to their phone's normal OS as required.

- People who went with netbooks for a portable device are somewhat interested in a very light distro targetted for the small screen that is focused around email and browsing.

Depends on their background and circumstances:
+
- People with N8x0 devices tend to fall into two camps: those who use 3rd party software (extras, maemo-mapper, etc) are definitely interested in Mer. There were also people who only use Nokia's included software; those people don't have much interest in Mer, probably since they treat the device as a finished product already, not an evolving ecosystem.
