with Hildon Foundation board elections.

     chem|st asked for participants to dream up a new maemo contest topic 
over christmas holidays.

Topic  (Discussion on state of maemo infra):

     qwazix brought up the topic of upgrading the infrastructure. There 
was some discussion on using the funds reserved for HW upkeep.

Topic  (Things to be settled with Nokia):

     The "Maemo" name licencing from Nokia is still an open issue. To 
properly transfer the name and domain name to us from Nokia needs some 
paperwork.
