[plain]Well, it seems the death of MeeGo is all but assured.[/plain]

[plain]Enter [/plain][[plain]Tizen[/plain]](https://www.tizen.org/)

[plain]Of interest is the programming interface model.[/plain]

[plain]From the site:[/plain]

[plain]The Tizen application programming interfaces are based on HTML5 and other web standards, and we anticipate that the vast majority of Tizen application development will be based on these emerging standards. These APIs will cover various platform capabilities, such as messaging, multimedia, camera, network, and social media. For those who use native code in their applications, the Tizen SDK will include a native development kit. We will open the entire Tizen software stack, from the core OS up through the core applications and polished user interfaces.[/plain]

[plain]The real factor may be the fact that the entire software stack will be open. Of course, it is still to be determined what open will mean in this case (since it seems to [/plain][[plain]vary wildly across the spectrum of technology[/plain]](http://blogs.adobe.com/open/2011/09/openwhat.html)[plain]).[/plain]

[plain]So what do you think?  Are we still in a limited mobile platform market, defined by iOS and Android, or does Tizen make it?[/plain]
