Without knowing but pretty sure when looking at circumstances...
What graphical toolkits will be available?
EFL or better known as Enlightenment
What about Python support?
Yes, as it is supported by Enlightenment
The only strange thing i am wondering is that Enlightenment depends on X11 right now but am pretty sure they will use Wayland as we are talking about something that will come mid 2012 or as i think close to 2013. It will be interesting to find out. Same goes for boot loader and stuff..
Awesome questions! Thanks a lot.
Here are the answers:
Can we expect open graphic/wireless drivers whenever/if the intel SoC comes out?
The entire stack will be open.
The best news we could hope for, but:

With the LiMo Foundation and WAC they have a number of industry players, not only just one partner.

An industrialist Plutocracy is a committee of sociopathic entities,
by definition. They default to implementing draconian measures
to keep hobbyist/developers away from tinkering with
their money-making machines, which is why:

The same one used already in MeeGo (not Aegis from Harmattan) SMACK based.
Thanks for this discussion, am skipping the N9 then... I saw how such a mechanism killed UIQ3 on Symbian...
My sentiments exactly:
If you (corpusculars) are selling a device that is locked into
applications only you (corpusculars) can approve of
and provide the enabling certifications for,
then I don't want to buy into your (corpusclar) garden..
...is the complete system lockdown that MSSF could enable. Device makers can use the facilities to require that only their signed kernels run on the devices, and that only approved applications get installed. .... Device makers may well have chosen to do that regardless of whether MSSF supported it, but its presence there certainly makes it easier to create freedom-hostile devices. One hopes that at least some device makers choose otherwise.
And this is almost exactly what micro$oft just got outed on
over the direction of implementation for UEFI.
This is devolving to corporate warfare.
The victims will be, as usual, the consumers.
Tizen devices announced early 2012? I doubt that.
If that was the answer. Can you please ask the same question again.
Why do you doubt that, did you not follow the coverage at IDF recently?
Anandtech in particular did some truly excellent write-ups... Announced early 2012, available mid 2012, (wouldn't be surprised if it extended to Q4) isn't impossible.
don't mix aegis and smack. totally different things. afaik we've smack already in the current MeeGo (not Harmattan!) version.
announcement: to be more specific: at mobile world congress in barcelona.
edit: the SDK and first images will be available already in November.

No i missed that. That would be truly amazing! I don't have the total scope for the work. But even so I'm skeptical about having the device in my hands before 2013. Just look at the meego project...
@zehjotkah
Will the telmap api's comply with tizen for use in app development or will they at least be made available to devs who choose to branch tizen core?
