In that case, to be fair to Maemo, it's worth noting that Nokia ranked in the top 5 contributors to 2.6.27, ahead of Red Hat and Novell. Nokia's kernel guys are actually working quite well with upstream right now.
The kernel is one of the components of the Maemo platform which is developed essentially by Nokia engineers (working upstream mostly - see the omap list for a good example) rather than a community developed component.

Maemo use cases Posted Nov 14, 2008 11:21 UTC (Fri) by dwmw2 (subscriber, #2063) [Link] Nokia's kernel guys are actually working quite well with upstream right now.This is a very good point — and although Jake doesn't mention it, I was careful to make precisely the same point on Friday during my presentation. Nokia do very good work on the kernel, contributing heavily in areas like Bluetooth and flash storage (to mention just the parts I've noticed directly).
