<br>My summary: X-Fade has committed to running the council elections, but not the coding competition vote. He also said that he doesn't believe that a community volunteer would be able to run the coding competition vote through the <a href="http://maemo.org">maemo.org</a> system, mainly because of the security risks. He doesn't think they'd be able to get access to all of the necessary databases.<br>

<div><font color="#cc0000">I don't necessarily agree with the last sentence for the long term. Those are community databases and the community, with community governance, has the right to decide who has access to them. That is not to say that I would not consult with Nemein on the security risks, and follow their advice based on their expertise, but I cannot accept blanket rules that have the effect of making it harder for the community to do what it wants (the Coding Competition vote being an example of the community's frustration). I don't mean to imply here that Nemein is not a valuable part of the community. I am quite appreciative of their support and think they are a big part of maemo's future. But there are members of the community that perhaps can be trusted with database access in the future. </font></div>

Or is it off the radar screen at this point?<br>
<br>mairas: Sure, we're funding <a href="http://maemo.org/" target="_blank">maemo.org</a> a lot longer than the internal MeeGo team!<br><br>(That puts things in perspective...)<br></blockquote>
<div><font color="#cc0000">Yes, I thought this was interesting too. I increasingly think Maemo may have an advantage that we are off (or under might be more appropriate to say) the radar in the big picture whereas MeeGo is seen as being a competitive threat to WP7. </font></div>

<div class="gmail_quote">Hello,<br><br>I do not believe it has been announced. A September Maemo community meeting has been scheduled for September 6, in #maemo-meeting, at 15:00 UTC. It appears this will be the last meeting before the next election.<br>
<br>The tentative agenda for the meeting is:<br><br>Election <b>operation</b> (so election runs smoothly and <b>not</b> to discuss issues that may be debated in the election)<br><b>Current</b> status of <a href="http://maemo.org/" target="_blank">maemo.org</a> <br>
<br>For those who are not aware of it, Dave Neary used to organize the maemo elections but has moved on from Maemo to other OSS projects. Nevertheless, he is generously assisting with the <a href="http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1079486&postcount=573" target="_blank">voting process for the Coding Competition</a>. It would be nice if a trusted person from the community having proficiency with SQL would volunteer to learn the process from Dave Neary.<br>
