It needs somebody to do the porting, but there is nothing prohibiting that from happening. I think there is even such an activity ongoing. I would love to see it on n9.

they're porting the hildon desktop to meego. I have a feeling too much of maemo is closed to be able to get a full working version on the n9 (ofono, drivers and what not)

But I would like to see a focus on pure maemo6 <--> vanilla meego for a while 1st.
To see what work-arounds & extensions can be done, before bringing heaps of GTK+ UI/middle-ware back in.
Or if both can be done without dramatically slowing one or the other, so be it!

how difficult would it be just to install hd on harmattan?

Should be do-able... Probably more likely to be an option for MeeGoCE though.
But a better approach IMO would be to reinvent hd (or an amalgam between it & harmttan's UI) using Qt components.
And Konttori seems to agree....
I think there's some folk already looking into that, can't recall where I saw it now.

Maemo5 works decently in 256Mb RAM, just try to imagine what it could be do with more RAM...

^ Still not quite as awesome as Maemo 6 with 1GB of RAM
Harmattan's UI looks limited compared to Maemo 5 now.
But it's not as bad as it "seems" to many users...
Any limitations will be rectified quickly, compared to the pace of dev for Maemo 5.
