Indeed. Nokia and Intel are meeting in MWC and I expect Imad/Valtteri to explain more details as soon as (like Dawn says) there is something clear to share. What is certain is that Nokia is not anymore in a position of parity, and Intel is the main driver of the project. This doesn't mean that the activities pushed by Nokia will be dismantled or taken by Intel overnight. Nobody has told us to stop working on MeeGo, and actually our top management is keeping very explicitly the main MeeGo goal set for this year: shipping a MeeGo based product (with all the activities that this implies). Also, the situation has different perspectives. For instance, Qt plays an important role in verticals like IVI or TV almost independently from the Handset activities. And Intel just unveiled a Tablet UX based on Qt where Nokia had no involvement. Sorting out this takes time. The Nokia executives could have shut down all MeeGo activities last Friday, yet they kept some doors open as part of the new strategy. Let's see what useful contributions can come through these doors. Taking blunt (short)cuts now doesn't really benefit anybody. fwiw, I have opened The informal but serious Nokia @ MeeGo thread http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=2719 to share the updates from the Nokia side that might be relevant for the MeeGo community. Hopefully this will help "cleaning" the MeeGo project channels from Nokia specific discussions. Feel free pointing anybody off-topic there. -- Quim _______________________________________________ MeeGo-community mailing list MeeGo-community@meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-community http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines
