One of the ways Maemo.org can reduce it is by encouraging the Meet-ups. People are much less rude once they've met you. (Small warning - I'm hatching a plan for a UK users meet - that's users, not devs, just for a day out togther) ((Edit - I don't mean devs won't be welcome just that the plan is to focus on what n900 can do, not how to develop for it. Possibly some sort of treasure hunt event in the spring))
