Maemo

Starting from Bora the release names will be alphabetical, E and G have been excluded from this progression for various reasons (see Presentation by Quim Gil at LinuxTag 2007).

OS2006

Mistral - Maemo 2.0: 1.2006.26-8
Scirocco - Maemo 2.1: Mainly bugfixes and some other enhancements. 2.2006.39-14
Gregale - Maemo 2.2: Bugfixes and enhancements.

OS2007

Bora - Maemo: 3.x 1.2006.47-20 (3.0), 3.2007.10-7 (3.1).

OS2008

Chinook - Maemo 4.0: 1.2007.42-18, 1.2007.42-19, 2.2007.50-2 and 2.2007.51-3
Diablo - Maemo 4.1: 4.2008.23-14, 4.2008.30-2

Maemo 5

Fremantle: current Maemo release

Announced releases

Harmattan: future Maemo release, to include bundled officially-supported Qt libraries

Historic names

Sardine: Similar to Debian's Sid/Unstable, Sardine was an experimental distribution of the Hildon Application Framework for the OS2006 and OS2007, primarily of interest to developers who wish to test "bleeding edge" features that are being developed for future releases of Maemo. As components from Sardine stabilized, they moved into Herring. More information on the Sardine web page. Sardine was declared dead in June 2008.

Herring: Was to Sardine as Debian Testing is to Debian's Sid/Stable, Herring was the stable branch of Sardine. Components were moved here to be prepared for release once they were feature complete.

Elephanta: This would have been a release between Diablo and Fremantle, which was skipped in favor of bringing Maemo 5 out earlier (note the alphabetical order of releases starting with "Bora", "G" was skipped because of "Gregale") - some pages still mention it, for example [1] and [2]; Explanation in the forums, Google search of "elephanta" on maemo.org

Hardware

Sputnik: Codename for 770 device. Reported here and here
Soyuz: Codename for mysterious unreleased device, possibly slightly improved 770 (made obsolete by N800?). Mentioned in 2.6.16 linux kernel source for 770 when some support were added for newer hardware - 4 bit SD/MMC mode with faster 24MHz bus speed (with comment "Use faster MMC frequency on Soyuz") and LS0413Y LCD (used later in N800). So possibly this device had 770 features but full SD/MMC slot and better display.
Gagarin: Codename for N800.
Selene: Codename for N810.
Rover: Codename for N900.
Dali: Not yet known. TMO thread
SU-18: 770
RX-34: N800
RX-44: N810
RX-48: N810 WiMAX Edition
RX-51: N900
RX-71: Not yet known. Device powered by an OMAP3. Possibly less keys (phone?). http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=268833&postcount=15 related TMO post]
RM-680: Not yet known. FCC Link

Software

bme (Battery Management Entity): Is proxied to D-Bus via the bme-dbus-proxy daemon
dsme (Device State Management Entity): DSME mentions: [3] [4]
mce (Mode Control Entity)
Retu and Tahvo (Fred and Barney): "Retu" and "Tahvo" are apparently the Finnish equivalent of Fred and Barney from The Flintstones cartoon ([5]/[6]). Various sources indicate Retu is a custom ASIC chip that includes (at least) pseudo real-time clock control, GPIO/userspace interaction(?), power button control and a watchdog timer. The watchdog can be disabled by way of the no-retu-wd flag accessible from the [7]. Tahvo is another ASIC(?) related to USB functionality. Retu mentions: [8] [9][10] [11] [12] [13] [14] Tahvo mentions: [15][16] [17] [18] [19]
wd (watchdog): There are both hardware and software watchdogs / lifeguards that reboot the device in certain circumstances, e.g. excessive CPU usage; important process crashes; system lock up. If the watchdog does not receive a signal within a certain time, the watchdog triggers a system reboot. Some (all?) watchdogs can be disabled in R&D mode.
OSSO (Open Source Software Operations): It was a department inside Nokia responsible for producing Maemo. It has been replaced by Maemo Software.
NOLO (Nokia bootloader): The nolo appears to have a small built-in debug shell.
