The Symbian Foundation launches

The Symbian Foundation has announced its existence. The foundation's plan is to make the Symbian S60 handset platform available royalty-free to its members - for now. "Also, it will commit to moving the platform to open source during the next two years, with the intent to use the Eclipse Public License. This will make the platform code available to all for free, bringing additional innovation to the platform and engaging even a broader community in future developments." This is all a result of Nokia's purchase of Symbian.
