[maemo-community] Sprint meeting & process

[From: Henri Bergius]

Hi,

Yep. I think at this point it is most important to try the various
options and then decide on the best-fitting one.

Anyway, at least today's #maemork stream looks quite good (though more
people could be there):

Blogged about this too, so people following Planet instead of this
list can stay up-to-date:

Very good points there. This should be reasonably easy to build using
Qaiku's APIs (especially when the guys from Rohea deploy some feature
patches I sent them) and run on maemo.org's Midgard instance.

I'll think about it, and see if I have time to do a prototype later
this sprint. In the meanwhile, keep workstreaming your activities as
usual :-)
