Hi,

I have already requested my name to be removed from your subscription list,
so please don't continue silly threads like that.
As I see, some developers at Maemo are overcharged with bad energy and devil's 
frustration , so just let me live in peace, far from your virtual problems and 
your off-topics spamming my mailbox.

Turn your energy (if any) to save Maemo project
and concentrate yourself on real challenges not your egoisti self EGO problems.


I am right in my opinions and decision,
as my last thread
"Please do your best to save Maemo project (hardware and software part)"
stays unread and without any comments.

I can't accept any community driven by devil's energy, self-conflicted.
It may takes months to make Maemo project back to life.
So blame yourself and only yourself personally, for your wrong doing
and defeat (this is directed to few developers only, overcharged with devil's 
energy and driven by egoistic Self EGO killing Maemo community project).

Hi,

please do your best to save Maemo project (software and hardware part).

Please show your support to excellent job done for Maemo project
by Quim Gil
marketing manager, open source
Maemo Software @ Nokia

Please try to avoid any frustration in public place,
please nominate some leaders among maemo developers to avoid
competition conflicts.

I am really afraid Maemo Project (hardware part) is partly closed.
My private opinion is based on traffic generated by maemo users at
InternetTabletTalk, by frustration shown in public place by some developers, by 
Maemo.com web site getting more and more bureauctratic place, by comments made 
by Quim disclosing a little interest by Nokia VIPs
to listen to what Maemo community says.
And finally.
Great place, great Welcome page devoted to Nokia N810 and N810 Wimax
version, I set up one year ago as Google Group
Nokia Internet Tablet
http://groups.google.com/group/nokia-internet-tablet?hl=en
has been hacked by knowing man
and Nokia Internet Tablet Welcome page with some hundred of
web links to services providing state-of-the-art coverage to Maemo project
(pictures, text, videos)
has gone forever .
The issue is, Welcome page's status was set to edit-protected by Google,
so no third person was in capacity to remove it.
As you see, there is no Welcome page at all.
Welcome page option is off.

So as not to enter into basic investigation,
just ask Google, who did it.
I contacted local Google office, Google office in Ireland, Google HQ
emailed Google Groups manager in charge.

So mayby my conclusion is well grounded and N810 Wimax edition is temporary 
closed.

If I am wrong please tell more details.
In either case, do your best to save Maemo project.

There is a number of Linux based tablets, cell phones -
Eee PC by Asus, A1200 by Motorola.

Linux is excellent in embedded devices.
Issue is GUI in embedded devices.

Stylus operated PDA technology is 20 years old. No chance for market success.
Multitouch + Maemo + glas replacing foil makes another generation of
maemo hardware.

There is a conflict of interest among administrator of InternetTabletTalk
and other hot Nokia Internet Tablet places.
Last year administrator of I.T.T removed all 3 messages I posted to I.T.T. 
forum to N 700, N800, N810 to say hello about new GG
Nokia Internet Tablet , being afraid to loose traffic to I.T.T.

Doing so he hurt Nokia's Maemo business, hurt Nokia Internet Tablet users
as only N.I.T.  provided some hundred valid web links to Maemo software, 
hardware nice places as Semantic WWW Magazine (R&D Project).

I.T.T. is web based forum and as a such, provides no multimedia content,
no web links to third parties, so there is no conflict of interest.
And the more, N.I.T. acted exactly complementary to I.T.T.

And thousand visiting N.I.T. have had opportunity to get valuable information 
from I.T.T. discussions so traffic generated was much greater
to provide some extra financing by ads placed at I.T.T.

Today administrator of I.T.T. get involved in ad personam conflicts,
not being able to say one word, why Nokia selected low quality gps in N810,
supported by network assistance.

The issue with AGPS is vwery clear.
In the States, tablet users get flat rate cell access to the Internet.
In Europe and in other parts of world, roaming takes place,
so moving from one country to another with AGPS on
you pay roaming overheads amounting 10 times basic flat cell rate if provided.
So ppl going abroad try not to pick up a cell phone not to pay
very high roaming fees.

What is so very simple and clear, makes for I.T.T. administrator
a way to make ad personam remarks.

Closing.
N.I.T. Semantic WWW Magazine provided at the top

Firstly: I deliberately did not *ask* for Darius to be removed. I rather hoped
enough people would reply and he'd get the message and either change his post
style to respect the wishes of his peers - or just leave. In the event he's
posted a request to leave - but then he's done that before.

Secondly: Dave, you tried to resolve this off-list and didn't get anywhere; we
know since Darius posted your private mail to a public list (a huge netiquette
no-no).

Thirdly: This thread was absolutely on-topic for a -developer list. Sometimes we
need to look after the group and a post to the list is the only way to address
the group. Darius causes a lot of irritation, has a reputation (apparently) for
being a troll, and rather than have a lot of people quietly being annoyed (or
loudly annoyed on IRC) I felt it was time to take a simple poll. That is, it
_was_ on topic until you (and now I) responded. Lets leave it at that.

Darius is more than welcome to engage in -developers topics (which he kinda did
for several months - although IIRC most of them seemed to be random requests for
other people to work on his pet project of the hour).

David

I have a great idea for reducing the noise on the developers list caused
by one troublesome poster: let's create a thread asking that he be
removed, and have everyone on the list reply saying they agree!

Please, people - let's try to keep the list on-topic. The easiest way to
do this is to stop reading & replying to off-topic emails.

Dave.

He's a troll and a very good one indeed.

Even by filtering his postings to /dev/null I still receive follow-up
list posts by people that are willing to discuss instead of ignore.

I'm also in favor of removing.

contact the list maintainers.

The Maemo community might want to initiate something similar to
http://live.gnome.org/CodeOfConduct , though reality in GNOME is
sometimes far away from these recommendations. ;-)

Right now there isn't (to my knowledge) any published set of appropriate 
use guidelines for the list by which one can judge the behavior of any 
particular member.  In the absence of such guidelines, and moderators 
empowered to enforce them, banning a particular email address seems like 
bad mojo (not to mention likely ineffective).

That said, in the past I've found his posts more inflamatory than 
contributory and I've killfiled him long ago.  I've been much happier 
since, the whole tone of the list feels much less combative and negative 
without his posts (I've even left in threads and responses to his posts, 
which are generally fine without his contributions).

My recommendation is to trash his messages without reading them, and 
don't feed him.

Thanks,
Mike Lococo

People have suggested this before, but it really difficult to get
the whole list membership to agree to ignoring him. Therefore the
troll persists...

I don't see the point of his posts, but if he is legitimate (not a
troll) then I hope he learns how to communicate whatever he is trying
to say.

My bet is he is some kind of 'support vampire' [1], if you are reading
this I suggest you try to communicate with some people on the
community off-the-record so you can come up with more useful feedback.
You cannot change the world unless you understand how it works.

Just ignore him on-the-record, is my suggestion.
