wait a sec. you write that as if you (intel) are the sole owners of tizen as of 3.0 onwards - the needs of let's say tizen mobile or anything else that is being worked on in tizen 2 land still are irrelevant in your view of tizen if those needs were to clash with for example ivi needs. you might want to realize that there are more people involved in tizen than just intel and the needs of others matter too. what you are saying is that, for example, multiuser needs of ivi trump the needs of mobile and you will use the tizen review process to enforce that. that is the tone of your email. -- The above message is intended solely for the named addressee and may contain trade secret, industrial technology or privileged and confidential information otherwise protected under applicable law including the Unfair Competition Prevention and Trade Secret Protection Act.
