Changes in bugs.maemo.org
Yo!

By the end of this year, I plan to close all those products in
bugs.maemo.org for new bug entry that are in the classifications
"Official Maemo applications" and "Official Maemo platform" as it seems
that Nokia has not been very interested in this lately.
The bugs.maemo.org frontpage will also reflect this:
https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12517

Only thing I am afraid of is that users will report to some random
(still open) products just to get their reports submitted, however with
the current low amount of incoming issues that sounds unlikely to become
a problem. Plus there are always some folks that don't read (we received
a few MeeGo/N950 reports in bugs.maemo.org though the frontpage clearly
says where to go for this) but that's life.

So from 2012 on bugs.maemo.org will exist only for reporting issues
about the maemo.org website and its related services, plus for Maemo
Extras (community applications).

Hi,

Sure, Nokia may no longer be interested in Maemo 5, but there is the
CSSU. I think a good approach would be to direct people who want to
file reports against Maemo 5 to the CSSU and to tell them that if that
doesn't already include a fix for their problem, they should file a
bug report against the CSSU component.

Thanks,

Neal

If the Nokia don't want to support their proprietary soft maybe we can
demand them to make it open?
Is it possible by law of some European countries to lodge action against
the Nokia for their stoppage of supporting their products and offer them
to conclude peaceful agreement on such basis (opening their propietary
soft for N900)?

I disagree as I doubt that CSSU folks really want to get all those
enhancement requests dumped into their product in bugs.maemo.org,
keeping very limited manpower in mind, plus missing knowledge of an
average reporter whether affected components are not closed source.

Did you talk to the CSSU folks about their opinion?

This has been discussed several times before on Maemo mailing lists,
bugs.maemo.org and talk.maemo.org and I don't see any advantages (or
potential new arguments) by discussing it again.
I assume that http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=784443&postcount=32
still describes it well.

This has been done now.
