The community work seems to be slowing down now (because of the<br>
summer?) and the the community doesn't seem to be pushing together for<br>
One Working Distro. We have about 15 distributions around but as far<br>
as I know (I haven't tested them all..), they all are 'developer<br>
skills required', not 'consumer friendly'. We've had Freerunner around<br>
now for about a year and there's still not a proper web browser around<br>
(packaged, 'just works'). Slow/buggy/not supporting JavaScript/etc...<br>

OM2009 testing 2 was released some days ago. So far ~3 e-mails on the<br>
list about it.<br>
New version of Mokomaze was released some days ago, too. Around 50 mails.<br>
To me this tells that people are more interested in Mokomaze than OM2009.<br>
<br>
But still, we have open hardware that can be used as a daily phone.<br>

</blockquote></div><br><br></div>I have just moved from 2008.12 Kustomizer to SHR Testing and it works as a daily phone just fine. Chatted on pidgin for a long time yesterday without any problem for the first time. I shifted as I am traveling for the 2 months and wont be in office for regular updates so needed a stable phone for calling and sms.<br>
<br>I think once paroli becomes non full screen (if it already has announcement needed) more people will be interested in OM 2009 as they can have a stable phone and also play mokomaze<br><font color="#888888"><br>Rakshat<br>
