This post (which inadvertantly appears to be a reply in an unrelated thread rather than a new thread!) just appeared on the Maemo developers mailing list:

Launch of Mobile and Internet Linux Project (moblin.org)

We are happy to announce the launch of the Mobile & Internet Linux
Project on http://moblin.org . Moblin.org is an umbrella open source
project focused on the development of Linux for Intel-based devices.
Moblin.org will also be an incubator for prototyping new ideas and
building a community of developers around them. Currently, Moblin.org
hosts a number of projects including an image creator, a UI framework, a
power policy manager and various non-PC oriented applications and
software components. The work so far has been focused on Intel based
devices but is open to contributions for support of other architectures.

We share a lot with the Maemo community as we are built on GNOME Mobile
components, use the Hildon Application Framework, and share many of the
same UI design goals for hand-held mobile devices. We look forward to
synergy between the two communities.

I'm assuming this is to do with the Intel MID platform.
