I fully agree, this kind of information is very difficult to find. I<br>
think providing this information might increase confidence that the<br>
community is alive. Personally, I'm curious who are the people that<br>
are doing development, or whatever for the Openmoko project. I'm<br>
wondering whether people are employed by Openmoko, sponsored or<br>
hacking away in their free time. Updating this page is probably a good<br>
start: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Who_is_Who">http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Who_is_Who</a><br>
<br>
I encourage the developers/maintainers/contributors of the different<br>
distributions to elaborate a little bit about the latest developments<br>
in the community updates. It's quite difficult to get an idea of the<br>
maturity/liveliness of the different distributions.<br>
<br>
Thanks to all who is contributing to the Openmoko community!<br>
<br>
Jan.<br>
