Meego purely as a name (I mean literally the string meego) is dead, but not to worry I would say

The source is open, so in practice the work done on the open dimension can't get lost. So the effort put in by nokia and intel in meego is all good for open source/linux point of view. Samsung and intel are already continuing the work in tizen, and they have some kind of more open agreements enforced by the linux foundation there, so I would be surprised if we wouldn't see linux on more and more of devices in the future. Also the tizen probably isn't a threath for nokia, since they should know the ins and outs of the system pretty well, so I would see it as samsung chipping also in for the platform, which can be used by everybody.

or something in the lines of that
