DawnFosterYou guys might be interested in this: https://meego.com/community/blogs/imad/2011/whats-next-meego07:33
* Stskeeps looks07:34
Stskeepsis it good or bad? :P07:34
*** dylo^ has joined #meego07:35
DawnFosterI think it's good07:36
DawnFosterI might be a teeny bit biased07:36
Stskeepsi'll look.. for some very ironic reason, the n950 doesn't want to open meego.com07:37
*** rdqfdx has joined #meego07:38
*** roger_ has joined #meego07:38
Stskeepsright, void of a lot of detail, but at least i can somewhat sympthasise with the html5 perspective07:39
tkeisalainteresting07:39
Stskeepsdoesn't say anything about technologies in use07:40
ali1234reading between the lines, it's meego without qt07:40
ali1234but probably webkit07:40
StskeepsDawnFoster: it also leaves a lot of questions about what happens to what's in meego currently - i think that'd be reasonable to help iron out, if there's still care from intel side :)07:41
* Stskeeps shall follow how the new project looks like, any contribution to open source projects is good anyway07:42
DawnFosterStskeeps: lots of that to sort out & the transition is critical07:42
Stskeepsyep07:42
iekkuoh, what?07:42
Stskeepsiekku: https://meego.com/community/blogs/imad/2011/whats-next-meego07:42
iekkuStskeeps, i read it already :/07:42
ali1234well transitioning shouldn't be that hard, i mean we're all experts in it now, it's all we ever do :(07:42
StskeepsDawnFoster: no hard feelings, at least the meego brand has been dragged through a lot of mud but let's see if we can avoid screwing it up this time around :P07:43
Stskeeps.. that sounded wrong07:43
* Stskeeps needs more coffee07:43
DawnFosterseemed like a good idea to start fresh07:43
DawnFosterI totally get what you are saying07:44
*** artboyx has joined #meego07:44
*** tazz has joined #meego07:44
Stskeepsbut i agree that things are really evolving to that the OS is 'just' a vehicle towards performance and ability of runtimes such as webkit/html5 apis07:45
Stskeepsand well, ability and performance are differentiators in this market07:45
*** gaveen has joined #meego07:46
Stskeepsright, well, this should give ample opportunity for discussing in our meego session later today in tampere :)07:48
ali1234sounds like hardware adaptations will be easier at least07:48
Stskeepsindeed07:48

*** onen|openBmap has joined #meego07:53
Termanaali1234, are you drinking the Tizer kool-aid? :p07:53
pixelgeekI keep thinking there should be a 'Ci' in front of it...07:53
Stskeepsi can only say that it won't fly nicely in germanic countries, as tizen sounds a hell lot like the act of peeing..07:54
pixelgeekali1234: Wholesale Application Community07:54
w00tStskeeps: hahaha, brik and I were saying the same07:54
TermanaStskeeps, quite fitting then, I'd say.07:54
DawnFosterStskeeps: you bet!07:54
DawnFosterStskeeps: I *hate* lists called -dev that are used for everything07:55
*** artboyx has quit IRC07:55
ali1234well meego has too many lists07:55
TermanaTizen, everyone can see it, but only you can feel it's warmth.07:55
Myrttidamn it07:56
MyrttiI just accidentally messed one of my meego shirts with paint, and now you are telling me its going to have collection value? damn it.07:57
* Stskeeps ponders if to go for the redshirt look today07:57
StskeepsDawnFoster: also some kind of information on impact on typically moblin-related projects such as ofono and connman would probably be useful to many07:59
*** MUILTFN has quit IRC08:00
Stskeepsthough those are projects in their own right08:00
SpeedEvil'We will open the entire Tizen software stack, from the core OS up through the core applications and polished user interfaces.'08:00
SpeedEvilSo - rather different maybe from 'meego is only a base'08:01
Stskeepsthere is of course one important question unanswered..08:02
StskeepsIs it RPM or DEB?08:02
* Stskeeps runs08:02
Myrttilol08:02
Myrtti+108:02
fralsso intel going tizen so they dont have to use qt any more?08:02
SpeedEvilpkgtool - it's the only solution.08:02
berndhswhat can i run on a tizen device though ? Software as a service ?08:02
ali1234html5 craplets08:03
pixelgeekStskeeps: RPM08:03
Stskeepsfrals: why wouldn't you want to use qt with scenegraph and webkit2? :P08:03
Stskeepsi can understand it from app story pov08:04
ali1234the entire point of all these OS is to enable app developers only08:04
ali1234anything that allows you to make apps without paying rent to an app store is not required08:04
fralsStskeeps: well... it wouldnt be the only thing that they fucked up ;)08:04

ali1234"wholesale applications community" sounds an awful lot like shovelware to me08:06
pixelgeek:)  They're trying to standardize the APIs that webapps use08:06
araujopixelgeek, sure RPM?08:07
pixelgeekaraujo: sure08:07
berndhsyeah forget small business wholesale is all you want :/08:07
SageStskeeps: trying to start the war already ;)08:08
araujopixelgeek, OBS+Spec still being used? :P08:08
pixelgeekThat's the plan.08:08
Stskeepsintruiging08:08
*** jubeom has joined #meego08:09
Sageis it said anywhere if tizen is openly developed OS or will it behind doors untill release is made?08:09
pixelgeekOf course, a lot of balls are still in motion, but that one seems fairly stable.08:09
miheroSage: will be developed openly with familiar and improved infrastructure.08:10
ali1234Sage: "a lot of things will be the same as they were in the MeeGo project."08:10
miherofrom imads post08:10
Stskeepsali1234: how can that be a good thing..08:11
Stskeeps;P08:11
ali1234also from imad's post08:11
ali1234Stskeeps: that's my point08:11
berndhsSo tsg meets twice a decade ?08:11
Sageali1234: tablet ux development was done behind closed doors before publishing. So ... :)08:11
w00tberndhs: only if you're lucky08:11
araujo"We will post additional details about this project in the coming weeks, including the code, developer documentation, and more"08:11
w00tberndhs: and the second time they're due to meet, they'll tell you they decided to shut up shop and rebrand ;)08:11
DawnFosterSage: the code will be open08:11
araujoSage, I guess they will open as soon as possible ....08:11
* raster wonders what kind of madness tizen is08:12
*** seif has joined #meego08:13

SageDawnFoster: yes, well I was meaning how openly it is developed. Can community see each git commitfor example?08:13

ali1234"these apps are wac"08:14
*** roger_ has quit IRC08:14

SageI know lot to ask atm. and more info is promissed but I'm sitting at train and do not have much else to do atm. :)08:14
ali1234pixelgeek: as a developer i want two things from any platform i am going to use and html5 offers me neither08:14
*** qgil has joined #meego08:15
pixelgeekali1234: What are you looking for?08:15
ali1234one is the ability to execute native machine code, the other is the availability of an api that makes my apps look like all the other apps08:15
ali1234html5 sort of offers the latter in so much as all the apps look completely different08:16
* Sage subscribed to tizen mailinglist08:16
* qgil too08:17
*** roger_ has joined #meego08:18
*** joone has quit IRC08:18
pixelgeekWhen you say 'execute native machine code' you mean OS API calls?  or x86 assembly?08:18
ali1234on an x86 machine i mean x86 assembly08:18
*** tackat has joined #meego08:18
ali1234on arm i mean arm assembly08:18
ali1234just give me a damn C compiler08:19
ali1234and an API for it that lets me draw widgets that look like the rest of the OS08:19
ali1234this is why i like qwidgets and hate qml08:19
ali1234qwidgets gives me both these things, qml gives me neither08:19
ali1234see the trouble is i can't afford to hire a UI designer to make draw a nice UI for me in photoshop and then convert it to html08:20
ali1234i need off the shelf widgets that look decent08:21
pixelgeekali1234: I understand.08:22
ali1234but more often than that i need a fast framebuffer without a million layers of abstraction08:22
*** KaziKluBey has joined #meego08:22
ali1234or the ability to use existing code libraries like bullet08:23
ali1234i don't relish the idea of writing a physics engine from scratch in javascript, especially when there's already plenty of good ones written in C08:23
ali1234i also do not like the whole idea of software as a service, where the user just gets a frontend app, and all the work is done by a server out of their control. i wouldn't wish to inflict such a thing on my users08:25

berndhsWe have mobile devices with unbelievable compute  power and then dont run programs on them08:28
berndhsThats just waste to the extreme08:28
Stskeepsali1234: not enough data to answer that well08:28

*** tazz has joined #meego08:31

MilhouseI'm not sure anyone will bother waiting for whatever Tizen bothers to create next year. :(08:47
berndhsHow is this not Intel abandoning meego?08:47
Milhouseberndhs: I'm asking, is it?08:48
Milhouseoops, misread08:48
Milhouseberndhs: looks like it, doesn't it.08:48
berndhsSure does08:48
Jucatosorry to butt in, just want to ask for clarification: Tizen is a separate project from MeeGo right? not MeeGo transforming to Tizen switching to HTML5?08:48
fralswhos claiming intel isnt dumping meego?08:48
MilhouseWish we'd never heard of Moblin now08:48
MilhouseJucato: No, MeeGo is transforming into Tizen, dropping Qt along the way.08:49
pixelgeekTizen is a seperate project08:49
berndhsfrals: intel last week08:49
Milhousepixelgeek: The way I read it, MeeGo is becoming Tizen08:49
JucatoMilhouse: eh? that wasn't really clear in the "announcement"08:49
Jucato(the Tizen page also mentions that it's being led by  Intel and Samsung)08:50
MilhouseJucato: "As they were in MeeGo" - past tense.08:50
Milhouse^ From Imad's blog08:50
frals"This new project is first and foremost open source, and based on Linux. So it begs the question: why not just evolve MeeGo? We believe the future belongs to HTML5-based applications, outside of a relatively small percentage of apps, and we are firmly convinced that our investment needs to shift toward HTML5."08:50
Jucatoit just means to me "will be like meego"08:50
fralsi understand that as a "kthxbai meego"08:51
JucatoMilhouse: like using the same underlying stack minus Qt08:51
MilhouseJucato: Should have been "As they are in MeeGo" in that case08:51
MilhouseJucato: Seems so, 100% HTML5 instead of Qt and WRT.08:51
Jucato(iow, the "anti" Windows8 project from Intel)08:52
MilhouseJucato: Qt seemed to be one of the defining features of MeeGo, seems like a major backward step to drop it08:52
MilhouseSure HTML5 may be good for apps in a few years, but in the meantime a native framework like Qt wouldn't do any harm08:52
Jucatoprobably not the way Intel sees it after Nokia ... but I'm not here to fan flames :)08:52
MilhouseIsn't Qt under open governance now? If Nokia are a problem, fork it...08:53
Jucatoso in short, there is really no official word yet from the MeeGo side?08:53

* sivang is discontent with redoing all the work that delayed us even on web infrastructure all over again.10:19
henahowever, i'm not gonna get sucked in this, so i'll just idle for now10:19
rasterits more like saying to them "this town just reminds me of my ex too much. i'm moving to another town 500miles away called tizen. you can visit me there if u want"10:20

alteregoDawnFoster: when you say "transission plans for Qt" do you mean a few docs saying how easy it is to write HTML and JS, or do you mean we will have Qt available on that platform?10:21
DawnFosterhonestly, we're still working on those details10:21
chouchouneQt-HTML instead of Qt-QML ?10:22
* Jucato guesses no Qt at all10:22
DawnFosterwe will have some way to transition, but exactly how is still tbd10:22
MilhouseNot having a native framework doesn't make sense - maybe in 3-5 years it will, but not now.10:22
sivangDawnFoster: SSO bugs is so last year...10:22

jrautioif they have ported Qt for Android, I suppose it would be possible for the community to do that10:24
jrautiothe same for Tizen10:24
alteregojrautio: not the point10:24

sivangNot going to get fooled after a platform again. Qt FTW.10:25

Milhousejrautio: it's needs to be officially supported, with a future - not a community effort10:25
alteregoThey don't have come up with shit names.10:25
MilhouseWithout support in Tizen, Qt has limited mobile future other than Symbian, which is dying.10:25

sivangI have a framework that never disappointed me, Qt, and it in its way to support HTML5 (which is saner then just mandating a platfomr on HTML5 until even the spec is done)10:32

GreatgibTizen looks to be an attack on the open governance:14:49
GreatgibMembership in most project teams (Release Engineering, QA, Program Management, etc.) is invite-only and will mainly be open to people at companies who are building products based on Tizen. However, Community Office, Localization, and some Middleware development teams will be open to participation on a merit basis.14:49
ali1234then it looks something like this14:49
Greatgibits more limo taking over and burning meego to not be a concurrent14:49
ali1234in html5 you have a large community of developers who have been working for years, and inredibly large amount of example code and documentation, many many development tools, and you ca even do consistent looking UI buttons if you want using forms14:50
npmthere seems to be no open anything here. intel makes decisions behind closed doors and announced them and we are expected to dance.14:51

npmwell i build another one. except you can talk to this one.14:52
*** bitshuffler__ has quit IRC14:52
ali1234the trouble with all the qml apps i've seen is that every single one has a completely different UI due to no standards in qml14:53
ali1234most of them are also extremely ugly due to the developer being forced to design the Ui themselves instead of using pre defined components14:53
npmsame with Html514:53
ali1234not really, because html5 at least has forms14:54
Greatgibali1234: this is because qml il a work in progress, but that will be similar in html514:54

*** lynxis has joined #meego14:54
ali1234but in qml - YOU HAVE NO CHOICE14:54
ali1234there is nothing else you can do14:55

npmbut why would anybody give a crap about this new "mee too" platform when google's got the story all lined up for desktop/tablet/tv etc?15:05
ali1234it can't possibly be the case that html5 vs qml is a choice between two things which are almost exactly as terrible as each other, with html5 slightly winning because at least it's been around for a while and people understand the problems it has and how to work around them15:05

ali1234i think we can both agree that writing apps in html without using jquery or node-js or whatever is extremely annoying15:38

npmbut there's qt mobiliity. versus reinventing the wheel for html15:39
npmfrom management's point of view it's just a different turning machine for the trogs to bash their brains against...15:40
ali1234what do you mean "reinventing the wheel"15:40
ali1234html5 had all that stuff before qml did15:40
ali1234qml is the thing that is reinventing the wheel15:41
* dm8tbr puts his white/grey/black hats on and ponders - this is totally pure awesome, now I'll be able to hack people's mobilephones using a website. call premium numbers, snap their pictures, ...15:41
npmbut it's alread reinvented. people have been programming w/ it. perhaps if it gets to the point where i can write the same HTML 5 mobile app on ipone and "intel/samsung" it'll be worth it...15:42
ali1234well one thing's for sure, you'll *never* be able to do that with qml15:42

pabs3rburton: still no kernel in Debian though :(17:53
TSCHAKeeebasically, after seeing this process go boom twice now17:53
TSCHAKeeeI'm convinced that the people governing this body are complete idiots17:53
wmaroneWell, Nokia are completely gone now at least17:53

dos1pabs3: there's no more "UI restarts" in Openmoko, as om distro is now dead and and Om Inc. moved away from phones17:54
pabs3dos1: rburton said that not me :)17:54
dos1pabs3: but there's still active community around it17:54
berndhsI also find it interesting that the Liniux Foundation has no interest in open governance17:55
dos1pabs3: which is far more important than company itself17:55
pabs3dos1: indeed. do you know if the kernel/u-boot patches will ever go upstream?17:55
TSCHAKeeerburton: I'm done with Moblin/MeeGo/Maemo/etc... 5 years of this bullshit of trying to build a research platform on an open system so I could do domotics research on my own terms... (on top of 10 years before that going other routes...)17:56

rburtonTSCHAKeee: debian :)17:56

rburtonTSCHAKeee: so? if you need a base platform that doesn't matter. stable is good too :)17:57
pabs3dos1: I heard glamo was the last hold-out? so 3.2 we can expect a mainline kernel to run?17:57
berndhsdamien_l: i want to talk to other devices in my own protocols17:57
jedixdebian also happens to be really old and started when there wasn't 100s of distros.. it reached critical mass17:57
dos1pabs3: i don't know details (i'm working rather on userspace), but that's possible :)17:57
damien_lberndhs: then websockets?17:57
pabs3dos1: wow, that would be surprising and awesome. after 3 years of owning a FR I had almost given up17:58
berndhsdamien_l: not servers, I want to talk directly to the other device, host-to-host17:58
berndhsdamien_l: open socket, send data17:58
dos1pabs3: about openmoko community: there is also active GTA04 project by Golden Delicious17:59

newbie007so any insight to intel's move?  Let me throw this out there. An HTML5 based desktop would have _huge_ security issues that will take years to hammer out.

ali1234anyway if you want my insight into this whole mess it is as follows19:11
ali1234OEMs want to pretend they are making their own OS so they have leverage over google19:12
ali1234intel deperately wants to be seen as relevant in mobile after they sold their arm business (oops)19:12

wmaroneheh, I'm still amused tht they quoted RMS at the initial MeeGo announcement19:15
ali1234i would just like to repeat what i said 2 1/2 days ago19:16
ali1234"it seems to take about 3 years to get a distro into a usable state. unfortunately maemo and meego have a history of starting over from scratch every 12-18 months, and the cycle seems to be getting even shorter with meego. it seems to have more deprecated APIs than it has releases."19:16
jstaniekwould LF be decission maker in tizen? it just adds a sticker, that's how I see it. Compare openess of bada to Qt Open gov and you'll see difference.19:16

ali1234and not the type of bugs you get in KDE - these are proper design bugs20:41
ali1234like half the UX is invisible until you mouse over it, which is impossible on a touchscreen20:41

gpradecan meego now be free like debian? i mean, who has the control about all the stuff of meego? are any file, sourcecode or something else in the hand of intel, nokia or othe company, wich you would need to work? or is all you need to go one in the hand of the comunity?23:26
*** microstic has joined #meego23:27
Stskeepswithout wanting to start a fight, free like debian, as in, free as in straightjacket?23:27
Stskeeps;)23:27
gabrbeddgprade: the source has always be free.  You have the whole stack available to build from scratch if you wish.  All on public servers.  It's always been that way.23:28
Stskeepsgabrbedd: yeah, except for those meego UX thingies..23:28
gpradesorry, i am german and my english is not good, i dont know the word straigthjacket23:28
gabrbeddgprade: as for control... the TSG always has control.  Unlike debian where it's The Debian Bureaucracy.23:29
Stskeepsgprade: ok, so, meego source code is already published and most of the sources has open source licenses23:29
gabrbeddgprade: straight jacket -- a device used to constrain insane people.23:29
gpradeok23:30
gpradeso if i understand it right, it could be (hopfully) that now meego and maybe qt can grow like debian without the control of nokia, intel and other company's23:31
gpradewhat about this technical steering groups, i read that mostly people from intel and in past nokia in this groups23:32
ali1234well the only thing that isn't free is the trademark23:32
gpradeand the community can not use this trademark? i thought that if the trademark is in the hand of linux foundation, the community could use it?23:33
Stskeepsyeah, that's not always how the world works23:34
ali1234not really no23:34
Stskeeps:P23:34
gpradesad23:34
ali1234linux foundation != the community23:34
gpradethan it should be time for a fork?23:34
ali1234but why would you even want to use the name?23:34
ali1234mer is that way ->23:34
ali1234meego is a silly name anyway23:34
gpradei like the name and the design23:34
gpradebut that is taste23:35
gprade:-)23:35
ali1234beyond the silly meegon things there's isn't much of a brand23:35
ali1234there's certainly no recognizable "UX"23:35
*** flimmer has quit IRC23:35
ali1234you don't look at the homescreen on a device and instantly know it is meego like you do with unity, os x, win7 etc23:36
gpradeok23:36
ali1234if you see handset you'll probably think "hmm is it some android varient?"23:37
*** sevarco has quit IRC23:37
ali1234and if you see netbook you;ll probably think "oh, some weird linux thing"23:37
*** dominikb_ has quit IRC23:37
ali1234maybe you could make the argument that tablet ux is quite distinctive i suppose23:38
ali1234but only the spinny tab things, not the icon screen, which looks exactly like android, except more glitchy23:38
*** helber has quit IRC23:38
gpradei understand, but if i read something like meego is installed, i think: "great, my handheld works together with my desktop (opensuse) and my meego tablet" if it could be some beautifull day23:38
*** helber has joined #meego23:38
ali1234yeah but that itsn't really true23:39
ali1234meego isn't even guaranteed to work with meego23:39
ali1234which raises a question23:39
gabrbeddIMHO, if folks want to continue a meego-like effort... should probably try to do something like Qt-over-Yocto (or openembedded)23:40
ali1234oh no not openembedded23:40
Stskeepsgabrbedd: as far as i understand, there's nothing stopping anyone doing a qt 'tizen' :P23:40
berndhsyes sometihng along those lines, and make up a new name, meego has too much negativity in the public eye23:40
gpradei know, sad, i dont want go to apple to have all this working together, i like linux, i use ist on desktop many years, as a user, not a developer, i dream, that some day a real free linux is working on my smartphone, not someting unopen like android23:40

ali1234fool me twice and all that23:41
Stskeepsfair enough, but you'd be fine with someone sharing packages with it to lessen work?23:41
ali1234if you want to use tizen packages in mer that's fine by me :)23:42
Stskeepsalrighty then23:42
ali1234sticking with the old meego ones probably isn't an option23:42
Stskeepsit's just really stupid(TM) to duplicate basic linux packaging work23:42
ali1234well duh23:42
ali1234that's why everyone said "just adapt fedora/ubuntu/debian/opensuse/slackware/etc"23:43
*** dailylinux has quit IRC23:43
ali1234i think canonical have the right idea, basing off debian23:43
ali1234if they'd tried to do what meego tried to do they would have failed, there is no question of that in my mind23:44
gpradecan meego life without all this companies, or will it realy now die?23:44
ali1234tbh i wouldn't use tizen packages even in another distro for fear they'll just disappear one day23:44
ali1234maybe cherry pick patches and apply them on packages from somewhere else23:45
ali1234somewhere that has a chance of still being around in 2 years23:45
gpradei mean debian life without any company which control it23:45
ali1234i doubt it23:45
ali1234meego is pretty much a zombie now23:45
gabrbeddStskeeps: I agree... that's why I think Yet Another Open Embedded Project isn't such a hot idea. :-)23:46
