: Canola is a fancy media center, with a rich graphical user interface designed with touch screen in mind. More than a great application, it is a great framework as well, enabling extending Canola or creating similarly rich programs like Carman or your own! Initially developed by Instituto Nokia de Tecnologia (INdT) in Brazil it was released as GPLv3 and community start to build around it. Today we have more companies supporting the development, the software was ported to other platforms like Ubuntu and OpenMoko SHR. Moreover, 5 of 10 Maemo's Google Summer of Code projects are around Canola, from media extensions like Picasa integration to non-media related as Remember the Milk (To Do list) and Bittorrent. | : Canola is a fancy media center, with a rich graphical user interface designed with touch screen in mind.

: Maemomm is a set of C++ bindings for Maemo libraries. With the bindings, C++ programmers can use the language features that they are familiar with, and combine them with the underlying features of GTK+ and Maemo. Maemomm allows greater type-safety, use of C++'s object-orientation features and simpler reference-counting semantics. | : Maemomm is a set of C++ bindings for Maemo libraries.

- | : | + | : Since Fremantle Extras applications will eventually be submitted to the Mer builder it may be a good idea to introduce it. We use the openSuse Open Build Service; a GPL service that provides an emulated, pristine (yes, I'm looking at you autobuilder and scratchbox), dependency driven build environment. I'll talk about the processes around Mer builds, access controls, managing integration with our DVCS (git), acceleration tricks and generally how to make good use of things you find lying about on the web. |
