Hi!

It is my pleasure to announce that as of now, we have opened public
access to

Our main portal:
	http://www.openmoko.org/

Our public wiki:
	http://wiki.openmoko.org/

Our subversion server:
	http://svn.openmoko.org/
	http://svnweb.openmoko.org/

Our bugzilla:
	http://bugzilla.openmoko.org/

Our 'developer file dump'
	http://people.openmoko.org/

Our GForge installation
	http://projects.openmoko.org/

Please also note that
	http://lists.openmoko.org/
now has a number of more mailinglists.  To understand which list is used
for what, I suggest reading
https://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Development_resources#Mail...

As indicated before, we are far from a finished end-user ready product. 

Also, please note, that given our current small team size, we will
probably take quite a bit until we can respond to all your
suggestions/comments and even contributions.  We hope for your
understanding and patience.

Cheers,
--

OpenMoko isn't a company: FIC is a (Taiwanese) company, creating a phone called the Neo1973, running a software platform called OpenMoko.

Well, that's what I thought too.
However, browsing through the source revealed the following copyright statement:

Well, there is an OpenMoko, Inc. as a legal body behind the project.

And yes, openmoko.com will be the 'commercial' homepage of the project, with web store, etc.

"Opened public access to"

A wiki and some mailing list isn't "Going Public" We all know what "Going Public" means.

This is an annoying play on words that causes misleading headlines. Remeber people 90% of us only read the headline.
