[opensuse-project] Maemo and Moblin merging into MeeGo
Yesterday Nokia and Intel announced they are merging their two mobile distributions Maemo and Moblin into MeeGo. Novell has an instance of Moblin called SUSE Moblin, a result of cooperation with Intel. What will be the involvement of Novell in the MeeGo project? Will Novell make SUSE MeeGo? BTW MeeGo will be a .rpm distribution. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
Hope so, a mobile phone with SUSE would be must buy for me :) On Tue, Feb 16, 2010 at 9:17 AM, Silviu Marin-Caea <silviumc@fastmail.fm> wrote:

I suggest to ask on opensuse-goblin mailing list - and join the developers to make Moblin (or MeeGo when it's ready) part of openSUSE!

I suggested a cool name to replace Goblin (Geecko Moblin): **GeeMo** GeeMo is the MeeGo off the Geecko ;-) Let's start first with a netbook version. Cheers, Djan 2010/2/16 Andreas Jaeger <aj@novell.com>

I can understand need for the new names as self identification, something a bit different then a crowd, but giving new cool names to just about anything makes sense only for real innovation, as such practice has its price. The price is that users that you want to attract have to know about subject in order to find it, so you have to invest in heavy advertisement of the new name. Is it worth to do that for subject that is already advertised by others under the name that is just permutation of the new one? I would probably not answer to your post, if we would not eagerly practice originality in almost every occasion (and yes, me too few days ago). We have Go-OO for our version of OpenOffice.org, link to Get Software for link to Download, Goblin for Moblin, lizards.o.o for blogs, and so on. -- Regards Rajko, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
