What exactly was not very good with it? E.g. Engadget seemed to think it quite OK.

I am happy that I got quoted (again). Working with rawhide is a fun (like eating hot chili with extra hot sauce) experience and I will be regularly blogging it from a sysadmin's versus developers viewpoint.

"Why exactly did you leave MeeGo, again?"

"Because MS gave us more $$$"

Same as always.

N9: Meego -> WP7

Yesterday on French news channel BFMTV they were showing the N9 and explaining that "the OS is not very good but will be updated to Windows Phone 7 at the end of the year which will make the phone much better."

I wanted to shout at him to have some more details about his statement, as he probably had the phone like in the morning for the evening program.
Never mind... :-(

That grumpy guy doesn't pick all the quotes. And not all of us are masochistic enough to run rawhide on a production system.

The grumpy editor appears to be ungrumpily happy that one of the Fedora devs is as masochistic as he is?
