Actually, when I cut and pasted that article snippit I was thinking about his blog *specifically*. AFAICT he has the highest position in Nokia with respect to the Maemo project (correct me if I'm wrong plz). He has a whopping 5 blog posts since the device has been out. His karma in maemo.org is 100% based on his blog posts. He gets asked lots of questions in the blog comments, but rarely answers. Since the N900 has been out, I see he only answered two comments, one of which was mine. ;) The other comment he replied to starts like this: "Is there any reason why all my contact attempts with you, Mr. Makkinen and other Maemo people at Nokia are being ignored?" ... "Excuse me for posting it this way, but what else am I supposed to do if all I get in exchange for my emails is delivery confirmations?" I wonder if he ever got a response. Blogs are often used as two way communication tools, he uses it for the occasional edict or a marketing promotion tool. -Jeff _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
