One to ask @geekygirldawn perhaps? All of the following have come from the Moblin side so far. I'm very much getting the impression that, apart from Qt, Moblin is providing the technology for MeeGo - at least the starting point:
  • All the source code released so far.
  • All the packages are existing Moblin RPM packages.
  • All the low-level stuff (fastboot etc)
  • All the developers that have shown themselves publicly or discussed things on IRC.
  • The one announced MeeGo device (LG jumping on the bandwagon since it was going to be a Moblin device anyway).

With that kind of code legacy, and the focus to date of "meego.com is a website for developers", it seems that Moblin is going through a rebranding exercise whereas Maemo is going through a rebirth.
