I'm an IT professional/FOSS Geek living and working in New Delhi, India. Currently for the most part I work as a Technical Consultant developing Open Source ICT solutions for social and societal inclusion. I am a a FOSS enthusiast, I want to create an awareness about FOSS through the work I do. Below are the latest updates from a some social networks I subscribe to.
Symbian goes FOSS!!!
Symbian 3 (the successor of previous Symbian versions, S60, S40 and others), the new version of Symbian OS, will mark the change of Symbian from being a closed OS platform to become an Open Source platform where anyone can download and modify it for free… The source code is published under the Eclipse Public License (EPL)…
We’re a community, not a company, owned by members not any one entity. — Symbian
I think the move comes seeing the increase in the popularity of likes of Android OS from Google and the iPhone OS from Apple who had slowly started stealing the limelight from Symbian…
But I seriously think Symbian is way late to gain back its popularity here… Should have released its code long time ago..
