On the list I see next to no mails about people writing applications for moko. What would be the best way to start doing that?
I'd prefer some script language over C or C++ by far. Has any script language been integrated into the openmoko default image these days, or would I need to install some ipkg files? Or even recompile to build my own package (something most people won't like, takes far too much time, cpu and disk space)? Are there any examples written in some script language that features beyond "hello world", such as being optimized for the neo screen size and to be used with fingers, or even gestures, or are optimized to use the least amount of battery / cpu / memory? are optimized to be used / unused (e.g. is it preferable to save state and quit and be re-started or should the application rather sleep and not use the cpu unless it is selected by the user)? or any example app using data shared with other applications such as the address book etc? or some application with example code for syncing data with a pc/desktop application? sure, I understand openmoko is new and has a long way to go, and I'm very happy about everyone contributing. but I'm somehow worried that I see no discussion about these issues, or only "I want" type of discussions, but not "how can I?" or "what is done / what can I do"? even if none of these features I mentioned are available so far, that would be fine for me, at least I would know where we are so far and what I can already do and what I can't. having more information what the current status is would be great. but maybe it is me spending too little time ont he mailing list and wiki, and I need to read up? in that case I'm sorry for waisting your time and will do so (still a few links would be quite welcome). Thanks for your help! Regards, Andreas _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
