So, is this project going to package open source Maemo 5 components for Debian and submit it to "upstream Debian" and maintain it there? This would be very welcome, as Maemo 4 packages already exist for Debian, and porting Maemo 5 stuff to Debian (or your Moebian) is easier when Hildon 2.2 and friends are available in the Debian repositories. Also, you can then build your project by simply starting from Debian and throwing the non-free packages in the mix.

Oh, and there is already a Group of Debian Maemo Maintainers that you might want to join forces with. A list of their packages can be seen here: http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?l...oth.debian.org

(Yes, getting Maemo libraries into Debian might not be your immediate goal, but it makes your goal much easier in the long run.)
