Editorial: Arranging the Ubuntu MeeGo Marriage

By on August 16, 2011

It’s rare we shake up our announced plans to run articles, but this editorial warrants it.

For too long now, MeeGo has sat in a state of flux. And, for too long, Ubuntu has sat looking for a viable direction into mobile. I tackle on my personal blog why both should sit down and hammer out a deal.

It has been far too long that the industry has been without a real-time OS that lacks walled gardens, and I’ll make my case for why this deal can work.

    Yes Chris I second that. Ubuntu & MeeGo need to shake up the system which is essentially a 2 horse race now.

    More choice, more competition, more ideas… is always a good thing!

    Except I wouldn’t really call Linux a true real-time OS. Sure, there are real-time hacks kludged in on top, but it wasn’t built from the ground up to be a real-time OS like QNX or VxWorks was.
