Well, Intel wrote their own set behind closed doors and threw it over
the wall. These then got adopted as the "MeeGo UX" without any public
discussion; whereas Nokia were developing their own set in the open,
and then closed the doors so as not to leak the "precious" Harmattan
UI.

So, without the public discussion - and with Nokia's being closed now
- it's a case of (more) politics and whoever threw theirs over the
wall first.

Cheers,
