[maemo-community] Discussion about Maemo community management...

[From: Tim]

Quim,

You make some good points, but they seem a little 'out-dated' to me when
considering the current state of online cmmunities/social networks. Not
that this is a _bad_ thing per se, just... We can choose to agree to
disagree on the subject. (And, honestly, the Community Council should
also be able to do much of what I outlined, if only for more time in the
day!) :)

Nevertheless, I'm glad I sent it to the List for future reference.

Tim
