Re: New Phone Project (MiniMoko) : Which functionalities ?
Le 06/10/2010 14:41, Thomas HOCEDEZ a écrit : Hi, As you might have read, Always Innovating (A.I.), is opened to think about a collaboration between them and us (Openmoko community) to build a phone based on their MiniBook. IMHO, this is probably the best news since a (too) long time ! It's a really GREAT idea ! Let me explain my dream : A MiniMoko with at least : - GSM/3G - mini-USB port (with host mode ?) - GPS less important : - better camera (for shots) - bluetooth (for headphones + mic) - higher screen resolution And finally will need a simple dock for home with : - HDMI port (- desktop screen) - USB ports (- mouse + keyboard + peripherals) - hard disk (- sata ? USB3 ?) That would be the perfect device ! I'm not enought skilled in hardware nor software development, but I will buy one ! I'm ready to pre-order now for those features at reasonnable cost ;-) -- /swap38 http://openmoko-fr.org ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

input method : dasher
Hi, At the end of this article [1], there's a comment about Dasher [2]. It's a strange but simple funny input method that can be very fast (39 words per minute). Dasher support numerous languages and the source code is open. A version for mobile device (ARMv4 / Windows Mobile) is in developed by Glen Femandes. Do you think Dasher can be useful for the Neo Freerunner ?

I'll let Sean know personally. We've discussed it. Haralde also has high regard for the idea. good news :-) Like jeremy I'm not enough skilled to contribute in code and I'm probably less skilled than him in management. But I want to help as much as I can. There's 2 solutions for a foundation : 1 - create a brand new Openmoko foundation 2 - join an a foundation that already exists an create a sub-group The solution 2 is easier to start (and can be moved in solution 1 later). We can ask to : - Linux International (see this mail from maddog : http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2009-June/049177.html) - Mozilla (they planned to build a mozilla phone : http://mozphone.com/about/) - LiMo ?

Re: Linux International and Openmoko
Jon 'maddog' Hall a écrit : Hello, (...) Recently I started another project, not a phone, but otherwise similar in its needs to Openmoko. This other project will have a community, be completely open, and needs an umbrella organization to help with legal work, etc. I intend on forming a sub-group of LI for this project. I could offer the same to Openmoko, to be a sub-group of LI. (...) Jon maddog Hall Thanks Jon, it's a very fair proposition. I'm just the little guy who started to speak in french about Openmoko one year ago [1] (with Bearstech's help), one of these end-users you're talking about. But I really want to support the Openmoko initiative because I hardly believe in open this hardware revolution. As I told previously [2], I think an open umbrella foundation can be a good option. Why not Linux International ? Before legal works, the community needs organization to be as efficient as possible with its ressources. (I'm sure there's a lot of people like me who really want to help but know what should they do first) Now I hope that key people of the worldwide community will join this opinion ... and let's go !
