FIXME, I'm placing this here to evidence such important thingh, please reorganize, complete and above all correct my english.
On June 2nd, Sean Moss-Pultz (CEO of OpenMoko) announced a major change in the OpenMoko world: the development of open phones was discontinued by Openmoko Inc. It will be assigned to the Community, so everybody is called to participate in this big challenge: make the project survive and grow!
The complete transition will happen in the next months.
In the mean time the new course is beginning to move, FSO team is looking for funding and continues development, we should expect 5.5 release in few days, the same for Paroli, 4 new developers are able to improve and maintain the kernel, but a lot of help is needed. Every contribution is important to realize the transition, so organization experts, developers, system administrators, testers, translators, wiki editors are welcome to get involved!
