Intel Acquires Mobile Linux Developer OpenedHand

Posted by kdawson on from the lending-a-hand dept.

nerdyH writes with the news that Intel has acquired OpenedHand, the developer of 'Poky Linux' and Matchbox. "The UK-based embedded Linux services team will join the Intel Open Source Technology Center, and will focus on Moblin development for mobile Internet devices and other mobile devices." The article notes that Intel's Moblin initiative had "failed to generate much interest" among developers when first announced earlier this year; this acquisition might help it catch the attention of more Linux developers.

    That name still cracks me up. Motorola first used the tag "Hello Moto", then later cane a project called "Open Moko". Freetards can't even come up with an original name. Sad.
