Sounds trivial, eh? I have been doing that for nearly a year. This is currently paused (as most other adaptations are) since MeeGo/Arm switched to so the so called hardfp and all the closed source driver pieces and bits required to setup GLES are typically not available in a hardfp compatible form.

So for now MeeGo is barely portable to any arm based platform.
