Frankly, not supporting PA well has been the most ridiculous shortcoming in KDE (after networkmanager). It has been the "no audio desktop environment" lately, but this appears to be fixed now.

So they buy Apples too, huh?
Yeah, I think I saw a monkey holding a phone in a weird fashion the other day.
And another monkey reading a book on objective C.
I don't *expect* a BFG 9000 to be realistic.
If it were, it would kill half the fun.
I'm pretty sure that BFG9k would kill *all* the fun, and then some.
All open source projects are hiring - just find a program you like that has a bug or omission. If it's useful for your day job, even better.
With the ongoing success of Clang and other LLVM subprojects is the days of GNU as the mainstream free and open development toolchain passé?
No.

Nokia Qt SDK - yes.
In fact, once 4.7 is released within the next couple months, you will be able to publish directly to the n900, interact with your app, and trigger break points in Qt-Creator on your PC.
What you want is PR1.2, not Qt 4.7. PR1.2 will happen earlier.
Oh please, Apple has come out with some Spiffy stuff.
The I-Pad is a Vanilla offering undeserving of the apple moniker..
And no, I'm no Mac Fan.
If you are no mac fan, why do you use the phrase "undeserving of the apple moniker"?
For all intents and purposes, Google can implement this themselves and do whatever they want without the help of anyone else in the named list.
I don't think they can. Google doesn't own the map data, they just license it.
How about plain old javascript? I heard it's pretty cross platform as well.
I really can't get anyone who considers themselves a tech enthusiast being too close minded to try one for themselves.

See the contradiction here?
It's not suitable for application developers either, there are no application development frameworks unless you count x libs.
If you want to make apps for future MeeGo, you can start now by making Qt apps for N900.
Upgrading phones should "just work" without any fear of breakage. Using apt this is known to work and it is not known that yum is superior. I would add that I have seen only unconvincing arguments that yum is even as good as apt, so I call it inferior.
Whether upgrade works or not is the result of hard work of people preparing the upgrade, not some "magic" provided by apt/yum.
I cannot imagine that switching to a Fedora base will make anything better, and I expect it will make many things worse.
MeeGo is not using Fedora base, it's a new distribution that happens to use RPM.
While it probably was not reason for the switch (they cite existing infrastructure and people intel have in place), RPM packaging is allegedly easier than Debian packaging (only need to edit one file and you are good to go).
