I really don't trust Nokia. They have a systemic internal culture that thrusts engineering into the lowest possible role. The number of engineers within Nokia who would fail at the FizzBuzz problem is staggering, often in key roles. The problem is that upper management doesn't understand why that's a problem.
Their hoping that Open Source will save them from themselves I suppose, but that rarely works. As long as Nokia is largely fronting this project, I don't have a lot of faith in it's long-term viability.
I just don't.
- harshaw 16y agoI concur. I once spent a couple of days in Tampere "attempting" to fix a couple of serious bugs between our app and the telephony layer on a S60 device. Never once did Nokia pair us up with a hard core device engineer - I honestly don't know if they exist. I can tell you all about the fluffy product manager types and the great times we had eating Reindeer!
