LWN: "Today is the culmination of a huge effort by the worldwide Nokia and Intel teams to share the MeeGo operating system code with the open source community.

LWN.net: "Nokia updated its Qt application framework to version 4.6 on December 1st, adding support for several operating systems — most notably its own mobile platforms: the recently open source Symbian and the Linux-based Maemo."

The Inquirer: "NOKIA HAS CREATED a port for the Qt cross-platform framework to Maemo 5 in a bid to help developers create applications for the N900."

LWN.net: "Today Thomas Zander from Nokia announced in a blog that Nokia will be using KOffice as the core of the office viewer of Maemo 5."
