Sadly I also agree. Fortunately like Randy said there are other things to 
hack/work/use/study/improve/etc that have a future

See you around

Sadly, I'm in sync with Tim.  :( I think it's time to focus on Mer and its 
compatriots.

While every ounce of my being says "please no" to this idea -- and most of you 
know my history with all of you. My gut says it's time.

There are more important things to put our time into (said with a tear).

Always maemo,
Tim

Frankly, I think this telling. Maybe it's time to consider wrapping things up

There have been no nominations.  Let's extend the nomination period and the 
voting (if necessary) for a week.

It's time for the next Maemo election.  Any community member who has karma of 
100 or more may be nominated for Council or may nominate themselves via the 
maemo community mailing list (nominations must also be accepted to nteh mailing 
list).  The nomination period will close at 23:59 UTC, Saturday, 31 March.

The voting is preliminarily scheduled to run from 00:00 UTC, Thursday, 5 April 
to 23:59, Wednesday, 11 April, 2012.  If the community decides to nominate less 
than four nominees, then the nominees will be considered to represent a 
consensus of the community and there will be no vote.

If there is a need for a vote, each member of maemo.org, who has an account 
that is more than 3 months old and who has earned over 10 "karma" points on 
that account, gets an electronic ballot.  The election is a "single 
transferable vote".  They rank their Council candidates in order of preference; 
if their top candidate cannot get elected with the votes they receive, the 
votes are redistributed until all council seats have been allocated.

Please give serious consideration to nominating people you trust with the 
future of maemo.  Nokia funding will end and Nokia cannot commit to handing 
over or licensing the website or parts of the infrastructure to the community.  
The current council has decided reorganizing maemo.org is not feasible for the 
long term and has started looking into a possible Plan B.  There have also been 
proposals to bring Harmattan into maemo.org, and to coordinate with other 
projects.  It is preferable that the future of maemo be made by a deliberate 
decision of the community.  Please help that happen by nominating and voting 
for council members of your choice.
