if you want to attract a lot of developers then1 think just must be very easy and that is the development tools.. Yes also on windows, it must be more like download, install, next,next, finnish and you are up and running with a development environment that can do emulated and or on device debugging
this is how it works for android, its just an eclipse plugin that can be installed as far as i know on all oss's with on device debugging.
so its tooling,tooling,tooling if you ask me. i hope that QT Creator will go in that direction asap..

What to say... The alliance:
Intel - unforgettable Intel Dot Station... they want conquer the net. No comment.
Asus/Acer - launch of firsts eeePc. Linux as OS (free OS, more money). Only a bunch sold. Fast renovation of stocks installing XP-7. eeePC sells like candies.
Intel only wins (until now...) making processors. But eeePCs are showing "mortals" that you really don't need hyper-power PCs at home...
My bet? People (I'm not speaking of geeks) don't look anymore for Intel Inside, and they don't want estrange OS unknown for them.
They want the Google apps, or they want Apple design, they don't know anything about the OS of their mobile...
So Apple for girls, Android for boys... and yes, Nokia for geeks, only for geeks.
I'm not trolling, seriously. Ask your neighborhood about multitasking, VPN, root...
Anyone really, REALLY, thinks Nokia "alliance" has any chance to beat Google?
And now blame me.

Maemo is better than MeeGo.
Nokia doesn't give a damn about it's customers.
Ari Jaaki is only just talks.
Bad marketing scheme and plots. If it wasn't for the community, the N900 would have been a total failure since day 1. Nokia should thank the community. I totally thankful with how helpful and resourceful the people on this forum provided me with apps and free adviced.
SO THANK YOU SO MUCH GUYS!

As for the so called "backing" of many companies , its all talk at the moment and i am sure they will soon drop out when they realise not enough gain financially so time will tell.
I am very much an optimist but i have to take a pessimistic view on this one purely because of the so called "openess" of Meego.
For Meego to be open as people think then all source code must be available for hardware and this i feel is where the problem will begin.

I got to say that Nokia is losing grib right now.

Word can mean different things in different country of your origin. But yes the community is great though some are really is a totally Nokian fan! and blindly see only just good things Nokia did but not the bad one. I don't meant to offending any body here. I Just want a part of the free speech society. Nothing is perfect in the world, not to mention in this forum! Neither me or you is perfect. We all sharing the same air that we breathe. But we are different in many single ways.
You have the right to not be a part of the community. The community wasn't formed by one person.. It is a bunch of people from all different background just like Linux, Windows and Mac.
Sorry i've gone off the topic
forgive me.
As for the list of companies, I wouldn’t read too much into it, this is all standard marketing stuff without any tangible commitment (though if all those Linux vendors in there provide not just lip-service but really adopt MeeGo and its upstream-first policy, this could easily be the biggest Linux offensive on the mobile market, ever). What I personally found interesting in the list is the relatively high number of companies from the far east - you’ve got a whole lot of China/Korea/Taiwan/Japan in there (and I’m not talking about just companies operating from there, but also in those markets).
