Thoughts. Since the results are more important than the name, I would take "Maemo" out of the label. This way there is less risk of users confused about the official status of the variants created and less risks of people at Nokia concerned about this project. Which means at the end a more comfortable context of collaboration between community and Nokia developers without the "product" on top. Note that what needs to be build is less of "one community edition" and more of an mechanism to create editions, or "variants" as we have been calling them at http://wiki.maemo.org/Objective:Maemo_variants . Am I right? > bazaar.garage.maemo.org (a la "The Cathedral and the Bazaar")? Branded > as the "Community Bazaar [for Maemo]"? In this context "Bazaar" sounds to me very much http://bazaar-vcs.org/ OS Remixes - os-remixes.garage.maemo.org ? -- Quim Gil _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
