I was at that conference and during that speech was going "yes" with my head as
I remember myself trying to find sources buried in a repository.  So for one
I agree with what he said. The truth as I understand it is that Nokia is
doing a lot of work directly with upstream projects (see the
linux-omap mailing list)
and he really could have know that.

How many lines of code does maemo.ORG have that could be submitted?
