The N900, N950 and N9 are my favourite devices. These devices have let me go into the open world of Linux. Possibilities are endless. I'm also still waiting for the Neo900 to keep this community alive. A lot of Jolla sailors are still here with the Maemo community, even though TMO is not an official Jolla board. This community is like a family for me (and for many of us). This community should stay alive! | The N900, N950 and N9 are my favourite devices.

Lucky we are we have the FPTF team (few of the most talented/accepted devs on Maemo) so I am sure we will get Maemo on Neo. But at the same time I am 'concerned' about its company leader's view on Maemo and the joint points between Neo/Maemo. I would like him to change his mind again (of course the Neo will never come equipped with Maemo!).

- About Jolla, I would like to keep my mouth shut. Just so much that I prolly will never touch a device. I liked the project but then they lost me (hardware wise, software/OS getting better, but in the end it was their CC behaviour).

+ | Hello Maemo, | ||
+ | |||
+ | My name is Peter and I am a Maemo addict. I go by the name 'pichlo' on talk.maemo.org and in the garage. My latest exploit was to accept a nomination for the Q4 2014 council election in the relevant TMO thread and this is my announcement of the same in the mailing list as requested. Is there anything else I need to do? It all seems a bit complicated to me so I apologize if I have muddled up something. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sincerely, | ||

I haven't personally used Maemo 6 aka Harmattan, since I installed Nemo Mobile on my Nokia N950 very quickly.

Council should be kept, as it is more accessible and community-oriented body. Board aka e.V. deals more with legal issues, bank account and such. | Council should be kept, as it is more accessible and community-oriented body. Board aka e.V. deals more with legal issues, bank account and such. | ||

I am greatly attached to qwerty hardware keyboard.

So far, the only phones which were heard by me to be secure from "malicious modem" (or "weak modem" controlled by "malicious tower"; not much difference, for end-user) are Blackphone and Neo900. If you can make the list longer, you are welcome. | So far, the only phones which were heard by me to be secure from "malicious modem" (or "weak modem" controlled by "malicious tower"; not much difference, for end-user) are Blackphone and Neo900.
