Using the word "users" implies that it is for users, not > developers. No, because "maemo" is the application development platform. So the "users" of maemo are developers (think iphonesdk-users). maemo- developers is for people working on developing the development platform, maemo-users is for developers using that platform. It's only confusing because the community started using "maemo" to also apply to "Internet Tablet OS". A mailing list for end users would be something along the lines of internet-tablet-os-users, itos-users, or similar. _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@xxxxxxxxx https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
