Well, for one, there seems to a whole lot of overlap with the Forum Nokia (FN) 
efforts visible (no pretty graphs, though) at 
http://www.forum.nokia.com/Sitemap/ The developer information proposed is a 
subset in one way (addressing just one of the platforms FN targets, no 
surprise there) and superset in another (as FN material does not deal as much 
with platform level stuff), but still, the amount of disparate, unrelated 
communities/dev sources in existance/formation all addressing very closely 
related subjects is nearing the point I am starting to be concerned that the 
level of fragmentation gets detrimental in the current, early phases.

As for new vs existing developers, please expand who you consider as part of 
the existing developer category ? Maemo/Moblin folks ? Symbian people ? Qt 
developers ? Mobile/embedded developers in general ?

Best regards,
