 Yeah, Maemo 5 OS (from 2009) has about 500 Python packages, while 
MeeGo Harmattan OS (from 2011) has almost 200 Python packages :

 Nokia ceased to sell Nokia N9 in many countries in 2012, but it is 
still available in other countries, sometimes at low price. It is 
estimated that Nokia N9 sold some million units in 2011 and 2012, e.g., 
in 2011/Q4 it sold more (1.5-2 million units) than Nokia Lumia. So there 
is a good MeeGo Harmattan community worldwide, and typical real Linux 
mobile users keep using their devices for some years.
 So I see MeeGo Harmattan OS on Nokia N9/N950 in its best moment, 
mature, with many fantastic projects (Inception, Open Mode Kernek, 
MultiBoot, NITDroid/Android 4.1, Easy Debian, Harmattan SDK on device, 
etc). And it will be easy to port many softwares to Sailfish OS and 
Ubuntu Phone OS, due to common Qt/Qt Quick use.

Great news!
I've had a soft spot for Maemo (and it's successors) since I got a N770 
a few years ago. Loved the Debian package manager, gnome-ish user 
space, Python bindings for just about everything on the system -- it was 
everything a Linux geek would want in a tablet.
It's a shame that Nokia left and Android is filling in the space. But 
perhaps the open source community can carry the torch forward.
