Make post lecture changes before publication, namely
rename files to allow localization, add questions by the
audience after first lecture experience, and other minimal improvements.

32 --------------- Chapter Basic Information ---------------
34 What is MeeGo?
35 --------------
36 All devices share the MeeGo core, but...

42 From Wikipedia article:
43 MeeGo is a Linux-based open source mobile operating system
44 project. Primarily targeted at mobile devices and information
45 appliances in the consumer electronics market, MeeGo is designed
46 to act as an operating system for hardware platforms such as
47 netbooks, entry-level desktops, nettops, tablet computers,
48 mobile computing and communications devices, in-vehicle
49 infotainment devices, SmartTV / ConnectedTV, IPTV-boxes,
50 smart phones, and other embedded systems. MeeGo is today
51 hosted by the Linux Foundation.
53 It was first announced at Mobile World Congress in February
54 2010 by Intel and Nokia in a joint press conference. The
55 stated aim is to merge the efforts of Intel's Moblin and
56 Nokia's Maemo former projects into one new common project.
57 According to Intel, MeeGo was developed because Microsoft
58 did not offer comprehensive Windows 7 support for the Atom
59 processor. Aminocom and Novell also play a large part in the
60 MeeGo effort, working with the Linux Foundation on their
61 build infrastructure and official MeeGo products. Amino was
62 responsible for extending MeeGo to TV devices, while Novell
63 is increasingly introducing technology that was originally
64 developed for openSUSE, (including openSUSE Build Service,
65 ZYpp for package management, and other system management
66 tools). In November 2010, AMD also joined the alliance
67 of companies that are actively developing MeeGo.
69 Using MeeGo looks like video
70 ----------------------------
71 Not worth showing Nokia videos
72 Showing of Intel tablet video
74 Commercial support
75 ------------------
76 Nokia et Intel
77 Texas Instruments
78 LG and some others IVI exclusive
79 Over 30 listed companies providing various types of support
80 Local support by firma 4titoo on Landsberger Strasse
81 Seems to be disolving with Nokia Windows Phone announcement
83 Community support
