Diablo Community Project
The goal of the Diablo Community Project is to extend the life of software inside Diablo (Maemo 4) and keep it fully functional.
Current Goals
- Extend the usable life of Diablo and associated GUI
- Extend the usable life of the N8x0 internet tablets
- Focus, harness and support community contributions to Diablo
- Facilitate updates of the software on N8x0 internet tablets (e.g. SSU)
Proposal: 1) Promote the development of "opt-in" packages as a "community-updates" component for Diablo. 2) Add "community-updates" component to Extras. 3) Build new hildon-application-manager and osso-software-version-rx* packages. 4) Install opt-in packages as "community-updates" and test.
