It means that the real interesting work will be at the Linux kernel, framework level, just move over to Windows8, and Android and forget about it, if you can't beat the join them.
OK... I forgot there is plenty of room in the OS/2 group (a real OS former multi-billion dollar IBM project .. and never mention it again or get fired OS). I was doing that for a living 20+ years ago and it was the Meego of the 1990's George Ingram Computer Scientist http://www.linkedin.com/in/georgeingramcom/ 503 East Nifong Blvd I Suite 167 Columbia Missouri 65201-3792 Voice 804-464-7257 -----Original Message----- From: meego-dev-boun...@meego.com [mailto:meego-dev-boun...@meego.com] On Behalf Of quim....@nokia.com Sent: Friday, September 30, 2011 12:59 PM To: fcas...@gmail.com Cc: meego-dev@meego.com Subject: Re: [MeeGo-dev] Who will keep pushing MeeGo?

It means throwing away all existing apps and reconverting them. The trend of using web technologies to cover the "apps" space is clear and pushed by many factors e.g. something simple to develop simple features and compatibility across the jungle of platforms. I actually agree with it. The questionable trend, that is not even a clear trend, is to put all the weight in web technologies dismissing the good and powerful native environment. Apart from few and very bold exceptions, even the platforms that started putting the bets on web ended up opening the door for native, and some of them even to "very native". Surely the Tizen architects know this and I'm confident (but I don't have more info than you) that they will come up with a sensible web/native approach, regardless of the specific technologies used. -- Quim _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list MeeGo-dev@meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list MeeGo-dev@meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines
