Last Monday, during MWC, LiMo Foundation published a number of press notes announcing new members, new devices and reference models and what’s more interesting for us, a SDK strategy!! Don’t forget SevenClick is a company specialized in Mobile Software Development.
The only information I’ve been able to obtain from the long press note is this:
- Native, Java and WebKit SDKs.
- Eclipse based
- Available in H2 2008
By the way, native means Linux. The specifications and APIs have already been disclosed, so we already figure out how the applications will look like. I specially like the Eclipse approach, since this free IDE is available in different Operating Systems, so you can choose your preferred environment to develop. The Java and WedKit approaches are still a mistery. We don’t know it the Java flavor will be based on JME, but I don’t expect an Android-like approach. It’s just an opinion. Regarding WebKit, we expect a JavaScript engine with an extended DOM containing telephony functionalities. Maybe we are asking too much, but we are only guessing.
