Introduction

Eventually, we will need to migrate to a fully community-driven infrastructure. This page is intended as a central place where information about this can be gathered.

Please see also the following thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=85061

This is intended as work-in-progress and will evolve as we are going through the whole process. For now the primary focus is to gather information that will aid once the topic of migrating to a community-driven effort becomes actual.


Inventory

As a first step we try to gather information about the present infrastructure at *.maemo.org and *.meego.com. This "inventory" is intended to provide an overview about all components of the infrastructure as well as to provide information that will later on aid during the actual migration.

Currently the following topics are considered important for the migration:

  • Legal Issues (Names, Trademarks, Domain Names, etc.)
  • Infrastructure (Web Site, Forum, Wiki, Autobuilder + MeeGo OBS, Mailinglists, Garage, etc.)
  • Steering (How do we want to organize ourselves? However, please keep this thread on technical details and discuss political issues in a distinct thread at talk.maemo.org.)


Legal Issues

What is the state about the name "Maemo"?

"... Maemo is currently a registered trademark of Nokia and the domain name is owned by Nokia. Our previous request to transfer the domain name was denied - I don't expect that to change. We have "maemocommunity.org" as a backup. ..." http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1226264&postcount=8

Who owns "maemo.org"?

What is needed for the community to run maemo.org?
