I'm not a troll. Trolls enter mailing lists to discourage use of a given
product. I like my N800 and I'd buy a N900 if I had the money.
I want to see Nokia succeed and beat Microsoft's software monoculture with
Open Source.

I just don't like to see it commit suicide like so many other IT companies
in the past that think they can win a short-term edge by partnering with the
IT industry's biggest monopolist. A convicted one, repeatedly, on several
jurisdictions.

It's not only a language: it's a platform.
