It's kind of sad that Jaaksi feels he needs to teach open source developers something, instead of learn from them. First off: we don't want to be taught about Nokia's business rules, that's between Nokia and their partners. We/I want to buy, and work on open devices. It's really as simple as that. And you know, it's fine if Nokia doesn't want to take the risk of being one of the first, but it just makes me sad to see how misinformed Jaaksi is to think he can reason us out of what we want and how he doesn't see the potential of what open source can bring Nokia (and he's the head of open-source operations!!). Now he just wants to get and not give, but I can understand that, it just seems to be the viewpoint of someone who doesn't know alot about how this open source thingy works, that's all. Maybe Nokia should have someone in that position who understands F/OSS... I'm just glad that, in the meantime, I'm going to have open alternatives.
