Hi everyone,
Today we are announcing the project release of MeeGo v1.0. This release
provides developers with a stable core foundation for application development
and a rich user experience for Netbooks. The MeeGo Netbook user experience is
the first to appear, with the development of the MeeGo Handset user experience
moving to the open in June.
Releases are planned on a six month cadence. MeeGo v1.1 will be released in
October and it will include support for touch-based devices, such as Handsets,
Tablets, and In-Vehicle Infotainment systems. The development tree for MeeGo
v1.1 is now open and we will start releasing various components in the v1.1
tree, including opening the development of the handset user experience in June.
We are now releasing the MeeGo API which includes Qt 4.6, the MeeGo SDK with an integrated application development environment, and various other operating system tools. Currently, the MeeGo SDK is focused on Netbooks, but the next version of the MeeGo SDK, an early developer release in June, will support touch-based devices, such as Handsets and Tablets.
The MeeGo Netbook User Experience includes:
- Visually rich Netbook user experience, building on the latest open source technologies.
- Instant access to your synchronized calendar, tasks, appointments, recently used files
and real-time social networking updates through the home screen.
- Aggregation of your social networking content. This allows you to see your social
networking activities on one screen, easily interact with your friends, and update
your status and site information.
- For a fast and rich Internet experience the MeeGo Netbook user experience integrates
Google Chrome or, if you prefer a fully open source browser solution, Google Chromium
is also provided. Soon we will be releasing the MeeGo Handset user experience which
will use the Fennec Mozilla Browser.
- Easy to use applications for email, calendar and media player.
- Highly optimized for power and performance.
- Languages: Japanese, Korean, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Swedish, Polish,
Finnish, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Dutch, English,
British English. Additional language translations being added by the community
