That's a very good point: we did not seem to produce any bugfix
releases for IT 2006.

I'm sorry, I did not want to start any linguistic discussions.  What I
should have said is: Nokia has lots of practices and policies that have
long history.  Our product and everything that happens around it
challenges (Nokia word :)) those practices and any changes won't take
one day or even one year. From the other hand, open source projects and
activities in general somehow imply certain expectations toward maemo
and its components that we do not always can meet. :)  So, returning to
"professionalism" word, I'd say we act quite professionally from Nokia
practices point of view, and we might look not exactly professional from
other points, hence the "definition".  You can help us by stating your
expectations.
