Open Source Mobile Roundup

by Nat Torkington | @gnatcomments: 2

Tim sent around a link to the VisionMobile report on open source technology in the mobile space, which I really enjoyed. It covers not just the software used at different layers in the stack, it also covers licensing and governance models. Strongly recommended.

Yes, anyway I believe there's an erron in the interpretation of EPL (related to symbian foundation). IMHO no way a company will pay a fee to Nokia to install the EPL-Opensourced symbian on a single handset (except the 1500 fee to be inside the SF)

The EPL speaks clearly. The main difference vs Android will be the "derivative works" clause.

I tryied also to commento on visionmobile but comment was managed as spam :D
