Re: Tizen?

Qt is framework and lots of companies use C++ and Qt. Like Google and Adobe. It might not be their primary framework but for an example those two don't even have a primary framework.

Re: Tizen?

Funny thing to notice: even if Nokia has screwed up big time with this whole Maemo / MeeGo / Harmattan thing, it seems that they are still the only one actually capable of doing (and achieving)...

Re: Topic of the Day: Should Nokia Drop Meego and roll with Android?

It is as neutral as it can be. No code allowed unless it's upstream (and upstream isn't controlled by Nokia or Intel) etc.

Re: [Announce] Opera Mobile 10

Because it's a commercial product and Opera's success is partly measured with the market share they hold. Thus it wouldn't be optimal solution to allow their apps to lie that they're Safari on an...

Re: What exactly is Meego ? Openness, synergies, etc.

That's true but it would be still a quite big step forward when it comes to HTML5 debate etc. Biggest possible player (when it comes to devices) supporting not just h.264 but also Theora. That might...

Re: What exactly is Meego ? Openness, synergies, etc.

This may be a bit off topic but can someone (Quim?) confirm that Harmattan/MeeGo will be shipping with Theora codec?
I mean, Vorbis support is confirmed, but what about Theora? All the bug reports...

Re: Nokia promises N900 will get MeeGo! Or perhaps not.

Re: Maemo + Moblin = MeeGo

Re: Ovi Store sells DRM-protected audio files that N900 can't even play

Isn't it the content provider / developer who chooses the devices on which the app/item/whatever shows up?

Re: Maemo 6 loosing source compatibility with plain Qt, and Symbian^4

Where did you guys get the idea that DUI-stuff is Maemo only? Symbian people have been talking about Direct UI for at least a year (IIRC), so I've thought that Direct UI is the DUI we're talking...

Re: Holy **** - €50 to register to publish to Ovi?

I also don't really understand why Ovi should be changed in any way. It is fine the way it is: offering a marketplace for "commercial" developers.
