I don't really understand what Fedora doing ARM has to do with Moblin or Maemo or Meego....

What Fedora does and what Moblin / Maemo / MeeGo do have nothing to do with eachother... at all.

MeeGo: the merger of Maemo and Moblin

If your talking about making a new OS... then yeah. Moblin/Meego/Moblin has nothing to do with Fedora.

MeeGo should be doing absolutely nothing of the sort. They should be concentrating on stuff that is interesting and that is going to make it a commercial success. Trying to design a new operating system for cell phones and whatnot is exactly contrary to that that goal. They won't be able to do a good job and its a waste of resources.

They should be concentrating on creating UI improvements, good applications, standardized APIs, and high quality development tools that can run on existing, easily customizable, and established operating systems; like Fedora or Debian.
