Task:osso-xterm

Let's explore the possibility of opening completely the development of osso-xterm, in a setting where Nokia and community maintainers would work together.

Proposed objectives:

  • Port osso-xterm to Fremantle (and rename to maemo-xterm or anything !osso)
    • Perhaps !xterm, as well; it's libvte-based, and not related to xterm proper.
      • The name "maemo-terminal" seems to be taken (after a quick Google Search: maemo-terminal from 2005); also taken: mterm (a dockable program launcher on sourceforge) other suggestions for the name: mterminal (only ~ 330 unrelated hits on Google); maemoterm (0 hits on google); maemotty (too abstract/unrelated?); maemo-vte (only 2 hits talking about "vte" in maemo) --thp 13:26, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
  • Diablo port handled totally by community members?
