Saying "''Maemo community is a non-profit organization sponsored by Nokia, which is an active and equal member.''" might be misleading, since there is no formal "non-profit organization" constitued. ---> "'''''maemo.org''' is a non-profit project sponsored by Nokia, which is an active and equal member.''".

This sentence is unclear: "''Therefore, members of the Maemo community are also contributors in other open source projects.''". I think we can drop it. Normally a contributor is someone contributing directly feedback, code, improvements... For instance, using Ubuntu or developing applications compatible with this distro doesn't make me a contributor of DBus, X.org, etc.--[[User:qgil|qgil]] 21:21, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] First paragraph is slightly self-conflicting

In the first line of the first paragraph, you say "Maemo community is the sum of developers . . . ", and then go on to say "It includes users of Maemo software with different levels of experience and expertise . . . ". So wouldn't the Maemo community actually be the sum of developers and users? —GeneralAntilles 12:17, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Rephrased. I just took the same elements combining them in a different order.--qgil 21:10, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
