[maemo-developers] RPM vs. Deb (was Re: MeeGo)

[From: Thomas Tanner]

I have repeatedly stated this is not about the package format!
It is about the infrastructure and the available software.
I have no problem with commercial apps being installed as rpms (using
alien).
Why should we drop the efforts of the Maemo and Debian community on ARM
devices? Where is the Moblin community anway?
compare

with http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/arm
