<table cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' border='0' ><tr><td valign='top' style='font: inherit;'><span style="font-family: monospace;">Please unsubscribe me from maemo-developers list<br>as I am not interested in your fight for maemo comunity leadership.<br><br>Maemo community council is not a good idea as long as the community is sponsored by a corporation, as it may hurt relations<br>between community members , community representative body and a corporation.<br>Developer is any developer.<br>So developer from Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, Samsung, Apple<br>is still developer in terms of Maemo.org, subject to membership <br>in the Maemo community.<br><br>So Global Alliance on Open Free Software is the best idea to give independent developers some independence and protection of their respective intellectual property rights.<br><br>Flagship of Maemo is Maemo Mapper.<br>Maemo Mapper is free open software.<br>But Maemo Mapper is not open project.<br>We have only
one revision by developer of Maemo Mapper<br>not a tree of revisions by third party developers.<br><br>There is no way to finance developers of free open source applications as they refuse to accept any money for add-on features.<br>So any such excellent project is free open source software<br>but Closed Project in fact.<br><br>What I suggested months ago was to build projects as<br>Finite-State-Machine top-down charts<br>and to have them administered and managed as Open Projects,<br>inviting third parties to join and co-develop new features, enhancements, to have low development time and have really hot software product.<br><br>GPS navigation is still a hot product, highly profitable to developers and corporations (maps).<br>One of the hot features is<br>Map Share incorporated by TomTom.<br>There is a number of other hot features, which can still be incorporated into Maemo Mapper or other open free software development.<br><br>Unfortunately Maemo
Mapper is one-man Closed Project.<br>To get it opened one needs to rewrite it as a Finite-State-Machine chart and tell third party developers its weak and strong points<br>and let them know binding points for new features, database connections APIs and the like.<br><br>Maemo Mapper has still a chance to be No.1 in global gps navigation given new features, new add-ons are incorporated.<br><br>So as a flagship of Maemo.org, Maemo Mapper is great application and solution for any commercial navigation delivered to market<br>by any corporation, generating profit on selling Linux embedded GPS device.<br><br>Unfortunately, at the present state of the art, I see today no new revisions of MM by third party developers, showing new features, add-ons, so I name MM as a Closed Project, not meeting Finite-State-Machine standards.<br><br>To move Closed Projects to Finite-State-Machine Open Projects takes some time and efforts, but only acting that way a new quality
software products can be made in shortest time.<br><br>Closing.<br>Yesterday I had a dream. Great dream.<br>I was reading news using newspaper-like monitor.<br>It may take some years my dreams come true.<br><br>So please unsubscribe me from maemo-developers list<br>to let me keep my mailbox free from your fight for leadership at maemo.<br><br>Please don't respond.<br><br>Darius<br><br><br><br><br></span></td></tr></table><br>Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com
