Maybe Nokia could be convinced to open up some/most of the Maemo5 apps once Maemo6/Meego is out; AIUI, not opening up the UI apps was an initial decision that has been at least partly rethought internally since. The most interesting thing (it appears to me) would be unified (i.e. combining social networks and local address book etc.) contacts and message logs, though I am not sure Maemo does the latter as well (or at all) like WebOS.
