Support grows for MeeGo project
The Linux Foundation has announced over 25 companies, including Acer, ASUS, BMW Group, Cisco, EA Mobile, Novell, and Wind River have pledged their support and interest in the MeeGo project.
MeeGo, which merges Intel's Moblin and Nokia's Maemo Linux-based platform, is an open source software platform for the next generation of computing devices.
According to the Linux Foundation, this participation translates into millions of developer hours dedicated to cross-device compatibility, application portability and the user experience for MeeGo-based devices.
MeeGo is designed to extend reach beyond just netbooks and smartphones to also include communications devices, in-vehicle infotainment devices, connected TVs and media phones.
