This not about Openmoko(the company), but about Openmoko(the community). 
So there is no ominous Plan B keeping us from getting things done. And 
this also isn't about future devices of Openmoko(the company) or related 
companies, but about getting the current products in the wild, namley 
gta01 and gta02, fully supported on the kernel side, to keep up with 
upstream development and finally to strive for upstream inclusion.

I would like to put this plan into action anytime soon, but lets first 
wait for some more comments.
