michael@1 41 From Wikipedia article:
michael@1 42 MeeGo is a Linux-based open source mobile operating system
michael@1 43 project. Primarily targeted at mobile devices and information
michael@1 44 appliances in the consumer electronics market, MeeGo is designed
michael@1 45 to act as an operating system for hardware platforms such as
michael@1 46 netbooks, entry-level desktops, nettops, tablet computers,
michael@1 47 mobile computing and communications devices, in-vehicle
michael@1 48 infotainment devices, SmartTV / ConnectedTV, IPTV-boxes,
michael@1 49 smart phones, and other embedded systems. MeeGo is today
michael@1 50 hosted by the Linux Foundation.
michael@1 51
michael@1 52 It was first announced at Mobile World Congress in February
michael@1 53 2010 by Intel and Nokia in a joint press conference. The
michael@1 54 stated aim is to merge the efforts of Intel's Moblin and
michael@1 55 Nokia's Maemo former projects into one new common project.
michael@1 56 According to Intel, MeeGo was developed because Microsoft
michael@1 57 did not offer comprehensive Windows 7 support for the Atom
michael@1 58 processor. Aminocom and Novell also play a large part in the
michael@1 59 MeeGo effort, working with the Linux Foundation on their
michael@1 60 build infrastructure and official MeeGo products. Amino was
michael@1 61 responsible for extending MeeGo to TV devices, while Novell
michael@1 62 is increasingly introducing technology that was originally
michael@1 63 developed for openSUSE, (including openSUSE Build Service,
michael@1 64 ZYpp for package management, and other system management
michael@1 65 tools). In November 2010, AMD also joined the alliance
michael@1 66 of companies that are actively developing MeeGo.
