this is kind of a cotradiction - if Maemo is more mature, why should one 
change the package management of the less mature solution?

In general I think the package format needs more discussion as it also 
implies a rebase of the distribution. Up to now Maemo was happily 
syncing from Debian, which obviously wont work with rpm any more.

So there must be at least a HUGE advantage coming with RPM to justify 
the efford to switch.
