Hi Graham<br><br>We have already started plans to centralize open source parts of the community at <a href="http://www.maemocommunity.org">www.maemocommunity.org</a>. Repos are first priority, then wiki, the forum is tricky. Input on value of community OBS for harmattan/fremantle/diablo would be appreciated at this point. Open for discussion and volunteers are definitely wanted. I would also check first to make sure that someone hasn't already mirrored the repos as discussed previously on the forum (sorry, don't have a link at the moment) as a safeguard against them.<br>
<br>My opinion is that this does not moot <a href="http://maemo.org">maemo.org</a> council quite yet. It is possible we will have a Nokia official website at <a href="http://maemo.org">maemo.org</a> and start an unofficial community website at <a href="http://maemocommunity.org">maemocommunity.org</a>. Perhaps some resource sharing is possible. It would be best to still have a council still tasked with communicating with Nokia since there is stuff left to sort out with <a href="http://maemo.org">maemo.org</a>.<br>
<br>So I will extend the time period to make and accept council nominations to the ML. Please feel free to discuss these other things on a different thread.<br><br>Rob <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Apr 1, 2012 at 5:57 PM, Graham Cobb <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:g%2B770@cobb.uk.net">g+770@cobb.uk.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>Quite possibly. If it turns out no one wants to do the council job any more<br>
then I think it is time to take stock and ask the community what they do want.<br>
<br>
Personally I find the forums and mailing lists useful. However, much more<br>
important to me are the repositories -- a single place to go looking for<br>
packages if I need them. How big are the current repositories and how much<br>
traffic do they get? The Community SSU is also an extremely valuable project.<br>
And the Nokia flash images are also critical.<br>
<br>
Maybe there are volunteers to provide portions of this infrastructure? Not<br>
necessarily under <a href="http://maemo.org" target="_blank">maemo.org</a> any more but at least in centralised places.<br>
<br>
Or maybe not -- in which case we are all on our own. I guess it is time I<br>
mirrored all the repos I care about onto my home system ready for when they go<br>
away.<br>
