But here council is the council of maemo.org, not MeeGo, and not of the world of linux based touch screen mobile software. They have responsibilities to the maemo.org community that would be subverted if they allowed scarce maemo.org resources to be used for other projects (and let's admit it, MeeGo has plenty of financial backing, why raid maemo.org's resources?)

Yes, I noticed before when you said this and it's an understandable concern. What about MeeGo adpatation for the n8x0 devices? Is that not a project which: a) benefits the maemo.org community and b) allows you to progress your knowledge and skills (and you will someday be able to transition to MeeGo)?
