Former Meegolandia is now MeeGo Network Finland

Until today Finnish MeeGo activities have been discussed under the name 
Meegolandia. Meegolandia was supposed to be the name of our community. 
Additionally, the planned event for the spring was derived from the same word 
(Meegolandia Open). We wanted to play fair and therefore asked Linux 
Foundation's, owner of the MeeGo trademark, approval for the name of our 
community and the event. However, as a name, Meegolandia violates the trademark 
and therefore it had to be changed. We, as a community - MeeGo Network Finland 
- negotiated the issue with the MeeGo Community and Linux Foundation 
representatives to find a mutually acceptable solution. After a few rounds of 
discussions, a solution was found.

>From now on, Meegolandia as community name has been replaced by MeeGo Network 
>Finland and our national developer-oriented, community-driven event's official 
>name is MeeGo Summit FI.

It should be noted that none of our previous efforts have been in vain. Dispite 
this minor, yet unpleasant, conflict concerning the name, the summit - MeeGo 
Summit FI - will be held on 15-16th Apr 2011 in Tampere. From this moment 
onwards, our focus should be on building our community and on how to make our 
developer-focused event one of the top MeeGo events in the world.
