Moblin and Maemo to merge
[Announcements] Posted Feb 15, 2010 14:18 UTC (Mon) by corbet

Intel and Nokia have announced that the Moblin and Maemo projects will be merging into a single mobile platform called MeeGo, which, like Moblin, will be hosted at the Linux Foundation. "MeeGo blends the best of Maemo with the best of Moblin to create an open platform for multiple processor architectures. MeeGo builds on the capabilities of the Moblin core OS and its support for a wide range of device types and reference user experiences, combined with the momentum of Maemo in the mobile industry and the broadly adopted Qt application and UI framework for software developers."
