Warning: This is not MeeGoWarning: This is not MeeGoPosted Jun 21, 2011 15:22 UTC (Tue) by blitzkrieg3 (subscriber, #57873)In reply to: Warning: This is not MeeGo by paulj Parent article: Nokia's N9 handset launched
arjan is hardly a "random" LWN commenter.
But aside from that, Wikipedia seems to be in agreement:
> Even though MeeGo was initiated as collaboration between Nokia and Intel, the collaboration was formed when Nokia was already developing the next incarnation of its Maemo Linux distribution. As a result, the Maemo 6 base operating system will be kept intact while the Handset UX will be shared, with the name changed to “MeeGo/Harmattan”
Translation: We're still using Maemo under the hood with a bolted on MeeGo API and UX.
Personally I'm curious how easy it would be to get MeeGo on the device, if the Handset UX truly can be used for both.
