Here's a very critical article on MeeGo: http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7929/
So, what does it have to do with us? Well, while MeeGo is a very different type of project, some of the observations of the article would also apply to our community. I thought it would be a a good starting point for a good discussion about what could be improved in *our* camp. To begin with, I've always thought that there isn't nearly enough self-criticism in both Sugar Labs and OLPC. Exposing problems is a necessary step towards fixing them, but we're often reluctant to do even this first step, especially in public forums. In this regard, MeeGo is lucky to have someone taking the time to point out some of the mistakes that are making this project fail miserably in spite of huge amounts of corporate funding. What do *you* think are the worst Sugar community woes? What could we do to improve the situation throughout 2011? (Note, there are two separate questions above. Trying to answer also the latter makes the difference between a cheap rant and truly constructive criticism... but I guess even the cheap rants are better than complete silence). -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/ _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
