But in the new project, a lot of things will be the same as they were in the MeeGo project. The Tizen project will reside within the Linux Foundation, will be governed by a Technical Steering Group, and will be developed openly with familiar and improved infrastructure. Much like MeeGo, the Tizen project will support multiple device categories, including Tablets, Netbooks, Handsets, Smart TV, and In-Vehicle Infotainment systems.
Apparently, the Linux Foundation will still be hosting this. And instead of Intel + Nokia, it's Intel + Samsung.

And the move to HTML5 does make sense - Apple and Microsoft are pushing them for a single write, single compile, run everywhere app store, while native development is still possible. (Whether this is better or not than Android's Java Dalvik & NDK is yet to be seen.)

...And methinks Qt licensing bumped into this somehow.

Let's see what comes out of it.
