It's true, and there are quite a few possible reasons for that. It's possible everyone is happy with the way Nokia is supporting the 770. It's possible that people who aren't happy, but aren't getting paid to work on the IT OS for 770 are worried that they will start, run into obstacles and a lack of information and have wasted their time -- DMSE is just one of several components that need to be replaced in order to have a completely-open 770, right? At any rate, your larger point is correct: it's not clear -- to me, at least -- that there is any kind of community of 770 users who care enough to gel arround such an effort and make decisions about things like goals, compatability etc. So, if the issue is all about my own dissatisfaction, being cranky on the mailing list and letting my 770 collect dust in my office in the attic is a perfectly acceptable solution.
