Please email Ari Jaaksi, Nokia's director of open source
to take full control over maemo.org's activities
to keep N770 applications available for download/install as previously.

Darius, but you can still install the applications even though there is no one-click install. Isn't that good enough?
I usually click on the "homepage" for the application and then download it from there. I agree it would be better to have a 1 click install but this way works. I usually download from a PC the .deb file and transfer it to my 770 using a USB-card reader. Then run it on the 770.
Is there any software you can't install? (A few programs are out of date but most are there on the project homepage link from maemo).

What if they did this to the N800/N810? I bet more people would be angry then. The link isn't costing them a fortune, and in fact removing it was more work than leaving it there.

1.) There's no such thing as an N770. I think you're talking about the Nokia 770.
2.) Nokia never supported the whole 770 package base to begin with. Nokia doesn't maintain 770 applications. The developers do. Most of them seem to be slowly migrating from a dying platform (ie your 2-generations-behind-2.5-year-old-tablet.)
3.) You keep saying as far as I know but you don't seem to know much. I'd chalked your original garbage up to being hammered but nobody's liver can keep it up for that long. Amazing.
