Hi all, Thanks to our benevolent listmasters[0], everyone interested in discussing mobile interfaces in Debian, Debian on mobile devices, etc, now has a new mailing-list:
debian-mob...@lists.debian.org
http://lists.debian.org/debian-mobile
As its description says, this new mailing list is meant to be the place for
"discussions around packaging suitable mobile interfaces for Debian." When
discussing the creation of the mailing-list [0], we tried to define what was
meant by "mobile":
"Mobile systems have a user-interface different than the traditional
'keyboard+mouse' pair, can be battery-powered, have a generally small form
factor and/or only allow few elements on a given screen."
Information about running Debian, Linux and other Free Software on mobile
devices has been gathered on the Mobile[1] and Smartphone[2] wiki pages.
We would like to invite all participants scattered around in the multiple
mailing lists to join debian-mob...@lists.debian.org to discuss and work on
bringing Debian to mobile devices.
In order to organize and coordinate the team work, we would also like to hold
an IRC meeting soon, so please add your preferences to the poll[3].
Cheers,
Didier Raboud (OdyX) and Paul Wise (pabs)
