The brand new http://maemo.gitorious.org/ has been getting new content at a good rate!
That trend should continue in the future too.
A really interesting addition to the different Maemo projects is the technical preview of the Maemo 6 UI. And that is hosted o the Qt side

Hi all,
We have had an issue with updating the autobuiler used for the maemo.org repository queues to use the final SDK.
As some libraries have been moved out from the SDK repository, it has taken a while to figure out how to provide the necessary libraries to the builder in a future-proof way. It looks like we now have a good solution for the issue.
Really sorry for the inconvenience, hope you all understand the situation. This definitely was an “oops” from our side.

Forum Nokia are giving hosting a training event in Copenhagen about Maemo and Qt.
The topics are centered around Maemo and Qt, and the target audience is developers interested in those areas. Commercial development will also be a topic in the event.
The registration is free, but needs to be done in advance.
maemo.gitorious.org just went live!
maemo.gitorious.org will be the place where Maemo devices develops the Maemo platform in the open.
Naturally the upstream projects that are used by Maemo Devices will be developed at the upstream sources, while everything else Maemo Devices develops in the open will move to maemo.gitorious.org as time goes by.
The idea of having a single location is to make it easier for people to find what they are looking for and to have a simple way to contribute back.
See you at maemo.gitorious.org !
On April Fools’ Day (1.4.2009) Scratchbox-2 version 2.0 was released. We are going to use this version in the next maemo SDK+ release that we are planning to release on week 15/2009. Scratchbox-2 is one of the core components of maemo SDK+ development environment.

Maemo 5 Alpha SDK (also known as Fremantle Alpha SDK) was released in maemo.org on monday. We are happy to announce that the Maemo 5 Alpha rootstraps are now also available for Maemo SDK+ development environment.
Those developers who are already using SDK+ to compile their source code can now start porting their code also to Fremantle without moving back to Scratchbox-1.
If you have installed SDK+ already to your machine you should run the command “$ maemo-sdk reload catalogue” to get the Maemo 5 Alpha rootstraps visible to your SDK+ rootstrap menu. To install Maemo 5 Alpha rootstraps just say “$ maemo-sdk install rootstrap” and a menu is provided to you where you can selected the rootstrap you want to start using. Maemo 5 Alpha rootstraps that are made availabe are: “fremantle5.0alpha_armel” and “fremantle5.0alpha_i386″.
Maemo SDK+ project provides alternative cross-compiling environment for Maemo developers. SDK+ is based on Scratchbox-2 instead of Scratchbox-1. To learn more about the SDK+ itself, how to use it and how to do software development in this environment please follow the link below.
