Name: Andrew Flegg (Jaffa) Profile: http://maemo.org/profile/view/jaffa/ Affiliation: None relevant to Maemo Platform: I've been interested in Maemo devices since about mid-2005, and bought a 770 the day the went on sale. Since then, I've been increasingly involved in the community - both on InternetTabletTalk and, increasingly, maemo.org.
I believe Nokia have yet to fully tap into the community that exists, and the community needs to help Nokia grow membership and activity within the Maemo ecosystem. I want to push for Nokia to do more and more Maemo development in the open, with them *truly* having to justify why a component is closed. I want to have the community contribute more directly to the development process, whether in roadmapping; specification writing/review or testing of pre-released products. The maemo.org community is growing: we need to ensure it keeps growing. I'm pleased to see that, already, some of the points I raised in "maemo.org: what next?"[1] are coming about. I want to see the Council pushing this agenda to increase the level of dialogue happening at the Maemo *strategic* level between Nokia - as its corporate sponsor - and the maemo.org community - as the passionate, experienced, but currently undirected, community that it is.
