What to learn depends on what do you know, what do you want to do and what are you willing to learn.

This link should be good enough for now: http://doc.trolltech.org/4.7-snapsho...arativeui.html

But of course what to learn depends also on the project you choose, if you decide to contribute to an ongoing project.

Cool! Thanks for the response. Now I have a starting point

Can't wait to see what kind of changes will be in store once MeeGo gets sorted out, and now I have at least a starting point to delve into a new hobby

So...i guess the MeeGo alpha is out...should I follow instructions I found here?

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=57485

to load it on my phone and start testing? or is that even possible at this point? It would be nice if I could keep maemo 5 and test MeeGo (Ideally dual booting)...since it is stable. Still...slightly confused bout what to do next...any input qgil?

sytheii - enjoy the day / evening and let the dust settle. Hopefully instructions to get MeeGo 1.1 Handset UX will be available, even leaving your Maemo 5 default installation untouched.

@qgil: is this thread just finished? I'm still waiting for the progress of how Harmattan software can be installed on N900.

For now, nothing about Harmattan can be done or analyzed until some of the SDK's are out. For now, it's actually best to work on MeeGo (.com) for N900 and test - same code banging the hardware bits.

Thanks, Stskeeps.

By the way, what's the rule of game? Is Harmattan a public software platform of Meego that Nokia will publish SDK? I'm really confused with the concept of Maemo, Meego, Harmattan.

N900=Maemo 5
Meego=Maemo 6
Harmattan = Maemo 6 + new hardware + new UI?

As this evolves, will Meego = Harmattan?

Sorry for so many questions

Close but no cigar. I will expand this a bit.

N900 = Maemo 5 = Fremantle = Maemo Core + Fremantle UI
N9 (?) = Maemo 6 = Harmattan = Maemo Core + Harmattan UI + MeeGo compatibility layer
MeeGo = MeeGo Core + reference UX (no vendor ships this and is this probably not the one you want)
The next Nokia MeeGo device = MeeGo Core + (Harmattan + 1) UI
This thread = Harmattan-meets-N900-but-has-no-specific-name = MeeGo Core + Harmattan UI

In other news - it would be really-really cool to hear something about the Harmattan SDK, it was supposed to be 2010Q1, we're now Q3, and even though I know MeeGo caused a stir *some* info about what's going on would be welcome.

Thanks, Attila77! I still have one question:
What's the relationship between Maemo6 and Meego? I assume Meego should be compatible with Maemo, ( other we wouldn't have been able to install Meego on an N900 ).

As time passes by, new release of Meego should also be based on new version of Maemo, right?

Maemo 6 is a transitional release. Basically Nokia was way down the road with Maemo 6 development when the MeeGo "merge" happened. Nokia could either delay the next phone or release what they had already started working on since last year. MeeGo 1.1 will not be available until October and that's about the same time the next Nokia device is rumored to be out. So you have Maemo 6 compatible with MeeGo. The next OS provided by Nokia will be MeeGo with Nokia customizations.
