A lot of source tarballs are hosted at http://repository.maemo.org/ and others
are available at their development web space.  The Maemo community is very
similar to the OLPC/Sugar group. A lot of websites, wikis, bugtrackers, and ftp
servers...it's hard to overview.

'Maemo Mapper' is used by the wizard to get the mapping area and an independent
project. osm2go is working without 'Maemo Mapper' functionality but is not that
comfortable. I think that I will make a patch to remove the 'Maemo Mapper'
option/requirement from the wizard.

The functionality is not broken, it's just not working ;-). I agree that at the
moment we shouldn't add the package to the Package Collection but when the
'Maemo Mapper' option is gone, we can reconsider our point of view.
