After youtube’s madness, I wouldn’t ever underestimate the creativity of the kids anymore. After wikipedia, the Linux kernel, KDE, GNOME, Webkit and Firefox, I wouldn’t ever underestimate the energy of volunteer experts anymore. -- [From the mind of Philip http://pvanhoof.be/blog/index.php/2008/10/05/comparing-mobile-development-to-the-music-industry]

All we know open source is great, but in addition of the aim and the theory it is good to collect real cases. Those proof points should be based on the Maemo platform and showcase examples of open source contribution goodness. Examples on how community contributions are helping Nokia building a better platform and shipping commercial products with it.
