and realistically is it worth it using those sources, or would it be better to simply take sfos, or even just mer and build around it.

AFAIK sfos and mer(?) are Qt based, while maemo5 is Gtk. I really like Qt and prefer it over Gtk every time, but Gtk resource usage is times less. And that still counts where it comes to embedded. Also, I don't think that porting Hildon from Gtk to Qt is a trivial task.

To the rest, a synonym of the word failure.

Just dropping this in here, but you are aware this entire community is about nostalgia for dead or at best zombie OS's and keeping old phones running.

:D

We are trying to pick up from where Nokia left when they made the mistake, not Nostalgia for NOTHING . Can you see the difference?

I don't think Hildon should run there new OS, but the N9 swipe UI should run it. Hildon is better suited for tablets.

Worth mentioning here.


Nokia design patents transferred from Microsoft to HMD; Lumia Camera UI included
Quote:

According to EUIPO, about 500 design patents previously owned by Microsoft Mobile Oy were transferred to its new owner, HMD Global Oy.

would be great to see Fabula design language to be transfered (and used) as well.

I heard these new Nokias have the lumia camera UI. That was inclused in these patents.
