MeeGo was a Linux distribution hosted by the Linux Foundation, using source code from the operating systems Moblin (produced by Intel) and Maemo (produced by Nokia). Primarily targeted at mobile devices and information appliances in the consumer electronics market, MeeGo was designed to act as an operating system for hardware platforms such as netbooks, entry-level desktops, nettops, tablet computers, mobile computing and communications devices, in-vehicle infotainment devices, SmartTV / ConnectedTV, IPTV-boxes, smart phones, and other embedded systems.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=openSUSE News – Announcing Smeegol 1.0 )〕 The Linux Foundation canceled MeeGo in September 2011 in favor of Tizen.〔https://meego.com/community/blogs/imad/2011/whats-next-meego What's Next for MeeGo〕 A new Finnish start-up, Jolla, picked up MeeGo’s community-driven successor Mer,〔(Twitter / JollaHQ: @kavalczuk #MeeGo is the name ). Twitter.com. Retrieved on 2013-12-09.〕 to develop a new operating system: Sailfish OS, and launched a smartphone Jolla Phone at the end of 2013.〔BBC (Jolla: Ex-Nokia employees launch smartphone. ) Retrieved on 2014-02-02.〕 All development of MeeGo and its supporting hardware have ceased. == History == MeeGo T01 was first announced at Mobile World Congress in February 2010 by Intel and Nokia in a joint press conference. The stated aim is to merge the efforts of Intel's Moblin and Nokia's Maemo former projects into one new common project that would drive a broad third party application ecosystem. According to Intel, MeeGo was developed because Microsoft did not offer comprehensive Windows 7 support for the Atom processor.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Intel: MeeGo exists because Microsoft let us down )〕 On February 16, 2010 a tech talk notice was posted about the former Maemo development project founded in 2009 and code named Harmattan, that originally slated to become Maemo 6. Those notice stated that Harmattan is now considered to be a MeeGo instance (though not a MeeGo product), and Nokia is giving up the Maemo branding for Harmattan on the Nokia N9 and beyond. (Any previous Maemo versions up to Maemo 5, aka Fremantle, will still be referred to as Maemo.) In addition it was made clear that only the naming was given up whilst development on that Harmattan will continue so that any schedules will be met.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=maemo.org – Talk – Renaming Maemo 6 to MeeGo/Harmattan )〕 Aminocom and Novell also played a large part in the MeeGo effort, working with the Linux Foundation on their build infrastructure and official MeeGo products. Amino was responsible for extending MeeGo to TV devices,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MeeGo Partner – Amino )〕 while Novell was increasingly introducing technology that was originally developed for openSUSE, (including Open Build Service, ZYpp for package management, and other system management tools).〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=openSUSE Releases MeeGo-based Smeegol Linux )〕 In November 2010, AMD also joined the alliance of companies that were actively developing MeeGo. Quite noticeable changes in the project setup happened on February 11, 2011 when Nokia officially announced to switch over to Windows Phone 7 and thus abandoning MeeGo and the partnership.〔http://www.mobot.net/nokia-boss-stephen-elop-dropped-meego-24542〕 On 27 September 2011, it was announced by Intel employee Imad Sousou that in collaboration with Samsung MeeGo will be replaced by Tizen during 2012.〔〔(MeeGo to be folded into Linux kernel-based Tizen OS, slated to arrive in 2012 )〕〔(MeeGo is dead: Meet Tizen, another new free OS based on Linux )〕〔(Tizen Is Announced; MeeGo Will Transition To It )〕〔http://www.tizen.org Tizen Official Website〕 Community developers from the Mer project however started to continue MeeGo without Intel and Nokia.〔(Where is the future for openness in mobile? - Henri Bergius ).
