Eventhough I walked saturday, I still have a couple of classes to finish up, but after then I'd be very interested in getting involved with creating a totally open source phone program based on linux. I do not have a clue on what all the team did to get these rom's ready, but I'd be happy to help after july 17th, 2008~ With linux, there is no question over ownership. I write linux for arm processors imbedded linux. I have no clue over the overhead of the phone, it would be nice though. |
This thread is dedicated to reporting and following up on folks who attempt to profit off of others intellectual property. Most commonly we see this on ebay with older equipment running newer custom built ROMs and custom developed apps which belong to a different developer.
In the case of AC with Slide2Unlock many people package his "iphone" style home screen unlocker with other software to build a Windows Mobile "iphone" interface and then sell it without paying royalties, licensing or even having the most basic permissions.
As for Linux....
I have owned several WM Ipaqs which we have successfully put Linux on. As you may know its all about the drivers and a free kernal of memory
I recommend you do a search for your linux topics and/or start a new thread to discuss. There may be other threads dedicated to your idea.
