Well, the list is young enough to maybe make that still worthwhile. Althoug=

I'm generally not utterly happy to do this kind of things (you've to move t=
he=20
subscribed people around, and so on).

Actually I'd say that we won't be focusing only on the smaller end. That's=
=20
what I like about MeeGo actually, it at last assesses that the situation is=
=20
about a spectrum of devices of varying power and size, and not about a=20
handheld/not-handheld dichotomy and you have to sort the devices in there.

I'd like our effort to be in the same spirit. And actually the plan I maile=
d=20
is in this spirit, since we're aiming for several type of profiles.

Actually here you're more focusing on the user interaction model. Which I=20
think falls into the efforts of each of our subcommunities (Plasma and PIM=
=20
being spearheading there). Here I'd like us to focus on:
 a) making sure our platform is ready for the wide spectrum of devices and =
can=20
be tailored easily by ODM (not butchered like you'd need to today)
 b) synchronizing the different subcommunities interested in addressing tho=
se=20
devices (requires knowing which user interaction are available, but really =
the=20
work of doing them is not this list job IMO).

So really, I see here as the common ground for the platform. Not the "let's=
=20
decide and make the UXs" forum.

Note that I don't feel that was your idea, but used the opportunity to make=
 it=20
clear (and hence why I don't think the name of the list should have anythin=
g=20
to do with what's available on the device for the user interaction, we got=
=20
plasma-devel covering that already).

Regards.
