I do like the OE approach. I was very happy and proud to present mamona as cool platform hack at LinuxTag . I explained there why I think the current sbox1 based approach (having an sdk created for "users") results in the many problems and frustration we currently have. The community itself is not organized in "what can we do to achieve xyz". they and I expect zyx to be maemo.org. They might even think : if maemo.org behaves like xyz THEY would be doing the right thing. it is not exactly easy to currently do anything for maemo.org (rember the bus where you are not the driver?). Are we missing a strong community leader? If I think of mamona in the "maemo.org what next" context I think that the main arguments to view/sell mamona would have to be that the packaging meta-data and the sources are separated. This encourages more experimenting and also allows "Nokia" to really cherry pick the components they would like in the ITOS but also allows other people to experiment greetings p.s. my presentation can be found here [1] http://dev.openbossa.org/trac/mamona/wiki/MamonaPresentations p.s.2 I published some pictures of LinuxTag at http://picasaweb.google.com/kees.jongenburger/LinuxTag2008Maemo _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
