| schestowitz | I recall VERY clearly that Nokia's mole, Elop, buried the "burning platform" almost on the very same day AlienDalvik was announced, making available for MeeGo like hundreds of thousands of apps (plus the OEM advantage of Nokia). There's something similar for Tizen now, announced only days ago (Tizen is a client of one of my employer, so I have some inside info, too, not just access to the project servers). | May 19 11:19 |

| schestowitz | I don't care that much. TBH, I hardly speak to Pamela anymore, not since she claimed to had "left" (she didn't). | May 19 11:19 |
