We are working on the fixes required for this first release to go out:

- MeeGo Handset unstable releases @ meego.com go first. It would be confusing and unfair if a MeeGo-Harmattan SDK release would include components that are meant to be in MeeGo but we haven't opened them yet. We are still opening components and integrating them to MeeGo almost on a weekly basis.

- The "based on MeeGo" also needs to be clear and in line with the MeeGo project and the Linux Foundation, owner of the MeeGo trademark. Having a first release ignoring this point would be also confusing and unfair. This step depends on the definition of the MeeGo Compliance, which is still a work-in-progress.

You will hear more about MeeGo-Harmattan unstable releases probably when these points are in a mature/done state.

Why don't we call the hacker edition MeeGmo?

Thank you, then we will (provisionally, of course) refer to it as MeeGo-Harmattan HE, until the actual name is published, when we will apply the same naming scheme - [final name] HE (and ask moderators to change the topic name yet again )

Really? What was closed in Maemo that has been opened for MeeGo?

Fair question. I will find the information and post it. In my ToDo.

In the meantime, you can check at http://meego.gitorious.org

Buteo (sync solution) sounds like one such component, recent talk implied that it was designed for Harmattan and is now being opened (code & development) for use with MeeGo.

[yes, technically it was never part of a Maemo release, but... point stands: releasing it closed and then opening it is a bit silly compared with opening it to start with]

See: http://meego.gitorious.org/meego-middleware

Yes, so it doesn't really sound like something that was closed in Maemo that was opened for MeeGo then, no?

I'm curious about the things being opened and integrated on a "weekly" basis.

They are also keeping the battery closed for MeeGo. Totally lame.

As an end-user... will there be an official upgrade path from Maemo to Meego - or will Nokia backport some of the key components as an official update?

For one - I'd like to be able ot use Java web apps in the same way as I can on my netbook.

No. However there'll be an unofficial upgrade path. It remains to be seen if it will be a realistic day-to-day option for most (or, indeed, any) users.

What makes you think that Harmattan, or - for that matter - MeeGo's Handset UX, will have a Java applet plugin in the browser? Certainly Nokia only view C++/Qt and WRT as the strategic, and supported, platforms.
