Has anyone seen EFL mentioned in recent Tizen developer docs? All I see is HTML, HTML, HTML - which makes me care even less about it. (A pity in a way. The underlying system seems to be pretty powerful and shares a lot with standard desktop PCs.)

But no word about actually supporting third party native (or even hybrid native-HTML) applications.

Tizen 3.0 running on Samsung Galaxy S4 shows up in Indonesia
Samsung may not be too serious about its own smartphone OS – Tizen, but it still continues the work on it.
Even without any commercial mobile devices, made by Samsung or others, Tizen is at version 2.0 right now, with Tizen 3 scheduled for release in early 2014. And it looks like the OS is going through some serious user interface changes.
Today Tizen Indonesia got their hands on Samsung Galaxy S4 running version 3.0 of the OS.
Samsung was supposed to launch the first Tizen device this spring, then delayed it until August, and then again postponed the launch to the end of the year. Whether we’ll see it then, or will have to wait until Tizen 3.0 is ready to ship, is anybody’s guess.
For now Tizen is an experiment, a consumer software training ground, and a sort of insurance policy for Samsung now, that both Google and Microsoft are smartphone OEMs too. Even when the first Tizen smartphones ship, they will be very low volume niche devices, and do not expect Samsung to do any serious marketing push for it. Sammy is doing too well with their Galaxy Android phones and will not risk derailing that.
However, Tizen is not only meant to run smartphones, and a later push to smarten the rest of Samsung’s consumer electronics and mobile computing gadgets where Android is not doing to well, is likely.

Samsung Tizen-based TVs could hit market in 2014, CEO says
Boo-Keun Yoon, co-CEO of Samsung and head of the consumer electronics business, tells a German publication that the company is working on televisions running the open source operating system.
Samsung's Tizen operating system may debut in TVs as soon as next year, one of the company's CEOs said in an interview with a German publication.
The Korean electronics company has been working on Tizen, an open-source software, as an alternative to Android. Tizen gives the company more control over its own future, allowing it to rely less on Google and more on its home-grown software. In TVs, Samsung already makes its own software. But as it tries to give devices more functionality and connect them together, that's easier to do with a common operating system.
"Tizen is going to be used on some of our smartphones just like on our TVs and on home appliances," Boo-Keun Yoon, co-CEO of Samsung and head of the consumer electronics business, told Die Welt. "This way we create an ecosystem in which we are able to connect all Samsung devices."
A Samsung spokesman told CNET that the company is "considering providing a TV based on Tizen OS, but detailed information including availability will be determined by market conditions."
While Tizen is an open operating system, Samsung and Intel have spearheaded the development of the standards behind it. Tizen enjoyed a splashy introduction at Mobile World Congress in February and has been slowly introducing new versions and rallying developer support.
However, the operating system hit a snag recently, with Samsung delaying the introduction of the first Tizen phone until the fourth quarter. The delay led to some speculation that Samsung's enthusiasm for the platform had waned, but the company has reiterated its plans to develop Tizen devices.
JK Shin, Samsung co-CEO and head of the company's mobile business, told CNET last month that the company wants Tizen to be on everything. Shin made it clear that Tizen is more than a pet project and "simple alternative for Android."
"There are many convergences not only among IT gadgets, including smartphones, tablets, PCs, and cameras, but also among different industries like cars, bio, or banks," he said. "Cross-convergence is the one [area] Samsung can do best since we do have various parts and finished products."
