Happy New Year from the Hildon Foundation — and future years to come for the Maemo Community!
Happy New Year Maemo Community! As we move into the new year, we’re also faced with a very new phase of life — that is, complete control of the maemo.org infrastructure, meaning community governance of the Maemo Community and everything that it implies (community servers and software repositories, various maemo-related software and technology, the talk.maemo.org forum and wiki, etc.). It’s a lot to fathom, but we are certain that if any community can handle it, this one can.

Open Letter from the Hildon Foundation Board to the Maemo Community
Dear Maemo Community, As long-time supporters and contributors — and, in all humility, quite honored to be counted among all of you — we, the inaugural Hildon Foundation Board felt it necessary that we put forth an open, public statement about how we feel the “Board” should be considered and engaged with. At this point, the first Board meeting minutes have been published for public review. As we hope you’ll see, it is nothing but the Maemo Community’s best interests that we are concerned with.
Meet the new (Q4 2012) Maemo Community Council!
Based on historic review, the following seems to be the only viable option for this process.

Leaving Finland (and Nokia), coming back to Italy!

I had the opportunity to work for three months in Nokia as ” Qt Expert ” in ” Nokia Developer Forum ” and it’s been an amazing job!
