Help defining the '''maemo.org 2010 Agenda'''. This is taken to mean the vision the community has for the state of maemo in 2010. | Help defining the '''maemo.org 2010 Agenda'''. This is taken to mean the vision the community has for the state of maemo in 2010. | ||

| - | == | + | == maemo development process == |
| - | + | === Openness, openness, openness === | |
| - | + | * Core libraries developed in the open by Nokia employees, and maemo.org community contributors. | |
| + | * Non-Nokia specification writing and approval, worked on by Nokia employees and maemo.org community contributors; discussed on public mailing lists. | ||
| + | * The ability to build a complete, flashable image by maemo.org community for beta testing of open components in development. (May be less necessary in an SSU-based world: TBC) | ||
| + | * The ability to strip a maemo-based OS down to its base and build it up again differently (for example, KDE and no Hildon). | ||
| + | ** By 2010, installing completely different UIs should be achievable through the Application Manager. | ||
| - | == | + | == maemo developer resources == |
| - | + | * Better localization guidelines for new and existing Developers. | |
| - | + | * Development Framework. ??? | |
| + | * Documentation System. (Help system???) | ||
| + | * Better GPS resources. (GeoClue???) | ||
| + | * Development Tools and Utilities for Linux, OS X and Windows. | ||
| + | * Better modern native languages support - like Vala and D. && how to build a hello world app in C++/Vala in 10 minute (no more!) | ||
| - | == | + | === Ship high level building blocks === |
| - | + | * Think of media server, VoIP, contact lists, camera, GPS localization. Currently developers only have the low level API's, while mostly they just want a widget that displays the mentioned data and listen to user interaction signal or device signals. This also makes these functionalities look the same in all applications using them | |
| - | + | ||
| - | == | + | == End-user software wishlist == |
| - | + | Software requests are really '''out-of-scope''' and ''not relevant'' to this brainstorming session (or able to be provided by third party developers without maemo.org involvement); however, they are recorded here so they ''do not get duplicated'': | |
| - | + | * A PIM system that can be tied into by developers, to provide PC synchronization etc. | |
| + | ** A equivalent to telepathy for calendar and contact list: A well integrated framework. | ||
| + | * Telepathy: | ||
| + | ** Better video call support | ||
| + | * Global sync-software | ||
| + | * Office suite. (???) see discussion | ||
| + | * Unionfs support built into the kernel (So users don't have to flash initfs and boot from SD, or make symlinks gone wild, just to install a few extra apps) | ||
| + | * a2dp | ||
| + | * Better support for right-to-left languages, such as Arabic, and Hebrew. | ||
