Reuniting hackerminded Tampere

Restart Oulu MeeGo Network with LDP

Bumps on the road

In brief, Nokia announced that the new strategy includes “a broad strategic partnership with Microsoft to build a new global mobile ecosystem; Windows Phone would serve as Nokia’s primary smartphone platform.” According to Nokia [...]
Community layers and roles
Obviously people have roles in communities. MNFI is not an exception, but structure and interactions of the community are still rough. This is understandable because community has been around for about 4-5 months. Yet some roles can be identified already. Roles described below are not result of any clear (systematic) scientific method, they are based [...]
In one of the previous blog entries I advised to have focus on your Summit or in any activity your community aspires.
