		+	Team status update:

		+	As in
		+	http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2008-December/036792.html
		+	(send/receive files via bluetooth in NEO), Erin keeps working on bluetooth. Jeremy fixed some qtopia and location bugs, and will continue learning more about kernel. The GTK redraw problem is fixed now (#1946) so Julian will be back to help with the Paroli edje files and keeps working on python. Olv is having kernel fun now, but since it's gta03 related, you probably won't see him a lot on the public kernel list.

		+	Qtopia:
		+
		+	OM is moving more focus to gta03 now, so my current resource for
		+	qtopia is fairly limited. Currently the things I want to fix most
		+	are:
		+
		+	* UCSD problem
		+	* Window focus (soft menu disappear, problems when multiple sms come in, etc.)
		+	* Partial import of sim contacts.
		+
		+	Please suggest if anything missing and I'll arrange my priorities.
		+
		+	There are several good things worth mentioning last week:
		+
		+	* The infamous WSOD (#1841) seems to be solved. It's already in testing repo. Praise for all helped in this!
		+
		+	* GTK redraw problem (#1946) solved along with similar problem in qt with an illume patch. Thanks, Raster!
