I apologize - I don't mean to upset anyone. But my experience has made me somewhat cautious. The community relationship is based on trust. So far the MeeGo decision making process has happened behind closed doors. This makes it very hard for me to trust that my interests and the interests of the community are at the forefront. Until Intel and Nokia can assure me that the community has a voice in the MeeGo process, I'll continue to be skeptical.
