Like many other community related items, we have left the question about the Council out of the pre-launch discussion.

You have the initiative. Do you want the Maemo Community Council to have a continuation as an elected body in the MeeGo project? If so, go and propose it to the Meego steering group: http://meego.com/about/governance

I personally think that the council elections should happen and planned. I guess candidates will need a public positioning about MeeGo and the current situation. Nobody really nows how maemo.org, moblikn.org and meego.com will be after 6 months but they will be very different than now. Elected council members might have an important role there, as representatives of the transforming community.
