maemo development process
Openness, openness, openness
- Core libraries developed in the open by Nokia employees, and maemo.org community contributors.
- Non-Nokia specification writing and approval, worked on by Nokia employees and maemo.org community contributors; discussed on public mailing lists.
- The ability to build a complete, flashable image by maemo.org community for beta testing of open components in development. (May be less necessary in an SSU-based world: TBC)
- The ability to strip a maemo-based OS down to its base and build it up again differently (for example, KDE and no Hildon).
- By 2010, installing completely different UIs should be achievable through the Application Manager.
maemo developer resources
- Better localization guidelines for new and existing Developers.
- Development Framework. ???
- Documentation System. (Help system???)
- Better GPS resources. (GeoClue???)
- Development Tools and Utilities for Linux, OS X and Windows.
- Better modern native languages support - like Vala and D. && how to build a hello world app in C++/Vala in 10 minute (no more!)
End-user software wishlist
Software requests are really out-of-scope (or able to be provided by third party developers without maemo.org involvement); however, they are recorded here so they do not get duplicated:
- A PIM system that can be tied into by developers, to provide PC synchronization etc.
- A equivalent to telepathy for calendar and contact list: A well integrated framework.
- Telepathy:
- Better video call support
- Global sync-software
- Office suite. (???)
