Ilmatar's dead, baby.
It's so dead that the place that Intel interviewed potential hires after Feb11 was same place as a Resturant Ilmatar in Helsinki.

I just thought it sounded cool, 'cause I think Ilmater is also a god (goddess) in the Forgotten Realms 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilmater
Indeed it was (can't believe I remembered that.)
Anyhow, my main question was, what was it SUPPOSED to be?
I realized it was dead, and I realize that linkedin is one of those places that people tend to not update, though I'd think that with the technical crap this guy has on his linkedin page that he would have updated it if he had been canned and looking for a job.
Ha ha, I wonder if in Finland the date of Feb 11th is going to be like Friday the 13th, and considered an unlucky or cursed day?
I know that it certainly is here. So much potential flushed down the drain, stupid Nokia and Elop and Microsoft bullcrap..

I read somewhere that Ilmatar was to be the sequel to Harmattan that was going to be based on "pure" MeeGo, as opposed to Harmattan which is more similar to Maemo.

Does that mean Ilmater is what Jolla would be working on? Oh by the way, I saw a post over at Amiga.org about Nemo, but I think they were referring to something non-Maemo/MeeGo related. Then I got sidetracked by that nasty thing called work. Can't they see I'm trying to do non-work stuff at work? Blah!

Ilmatar, if I remember the rumours correctly, was the real Meego, running on Intel CPU.

Till-date Intel's CPU is still struggling so the hard truth is he was right about pure MeeGo but hid the truth that MeeGo-Harmattan could still be adapted and released in various devices...
Well its water under the bridge now...
Says he is the project manager for Harmattan / Ilmater Imaging applications. What is Ilmater?
