Nokia N9 developer site shut down?
 
Hi,

Nokia's N9 developer website at http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com is not accessible anymore for a while.

I already complained about it at developer.nokia.com but haven't got any response.

Is there another place to find the N9 Harmattan sdk and ux docs?

Cheers,
M.

The site is allegedly down for maintenance, see here http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=1087

There is a users backup somewhere around here I think. A good start would be the backup thread http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1293842

For docs, see http://www.developer.nokia.com/info/...n_Library.html

If you can't find one anywhere else, I think you can download a version of the Qt SDK containing the Harmattan target, compilation tool chain and Qt creator via the following link:

http://www.developer.nokia.com/info/...f8/Qt_SDK.html

Edit 1:
By the way, user jackburton is having problems updating scratchbox while the maintenance is ongoing (see http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=1083 for more details) - can anyone provide him with details or a mirror link where he can update from/download the relevent files?

Edit 2:
We've had the same questions on a few threads now in different sub-sections, I think it would make sense to create a new thread on the 'Development' section of our forum where we can put the latest most accurate info in and keep everyone up to date while the harmattan-dev maintenance is being carried out.

Thanks for mentioning me, Kojacker.

I am still seeking to find a way to research and modify BlueZ on the N950 to allow for bluetooth Pan (not sure if it will resolve the issue or not, but it would be nice to try).

My N950 is on PR1.2. bluez package is version 4.91-0maemo8+0m6.

Does anybody have the bluez source package for this? Also, does anybody have the build tools so that I could try to recompile on the N950 itself? SDK site is down, but I thought it may be possible to compile on the device directly with the appropriate stuff on there.

Thanks.

Why would you develop for a dead platform?

Because I love zombies (and zombie platforms)!

But also because I like the phones. I use the phone as a phone plus only a few other things (contacts, calendar, chat, GPS, modem, tasklist) I do not use the Nokia phones for apps.

For apps, I use an iPod Touch 5th gen over Bluetooth PAN.

That's exactly the question many possible WP devs have asked themselves before coming to the conclusion that,s not worth the hassle, despite luring & baiting by Steve himself.

Because I have the choice!

I don't do this for living, you see. If I developed mobile applications to get bread on the table I would be forced to use the boring, crappy and restrictring tool chains hung out to poor developers by the so called "successiful ecosystems". Instead, I can have fun playing with the most intresting platforms and devices that exist.

Dead? No MeeGo is not dead. Or is there Maemo running on the N950?
