Carsten Munk makes a plea for openness

With the release of the Handset UX, maemo.org distmaster and pillar of the community Carsten Munk has made a plea for increased and continued openness in MeeGo. So, we're past Handset day one. MeeGo has published the Core, the Netbook UX and the Handset UX development is opened. It's summer, many people have gone on vacation. Nothing will probably happen during this month. But I'd like to plea for you think about something while you're relaxing. Just something for you to keep in mind for when you're back at your desk. That is, to remember that we are supposed to be doing, random citations from around the website: "MeeGo software is developed and designed in a collaborative effort by an open community of professionals and volunteers", "The governance model is based on meritocracy and the best practices and values of the Open Source culture.", "Yet MeeGo operations are expected and designed to be completely transparent - R&D in the public internet!" Nokia has made great strides here since 2005, but large companies are always slow to change and we're still facing many of the same problem we where during the heyday of the 770. It'll take the help of every person involved in the project to ensure that we keep moving forward from here out.
