Developing on Maemo Platform
Innovation on Maemo platform can be divided into two area: developing applications on top of the platform and developing the actual platform.

- share your application project in the Maemo garage
- make your application easy to install and put in the Application Catalog in maemo.org
- once you receive a high quality - be promoted on Nokia user site
