The lack of a community-focused body in MeeGo is fairly apparent. The project is basically entirely technically focused at the moment. The Maemo Community seems like a good candidate to provide community guidance.

So, I guess with Maemo and maemo.org now being deprecated in favor of MeeGo (seriously, what the HELL were you guys thinking with that godawful name?!) we should look to figuring things out for the August 2010 council?

I figure we proceed as planned for next month and look at it as a transitional period for the end of the year.

Feeling very confused and just a bit steamrolled,
