MeeGo presentation at LinuxTag

Today I had the pleasure of presenting about MeeGo in the mobile Linux track at LinuxTag 2010. The room was packed, thankfully I had a double slot so I had plenty of time to talk about the what and the why and the how of MeeGo. I talked about the origins of MeeGo and explained the governance model. I walked through the architecture and then spent a lot of time explaining how we focus on working with the upstream projects. Finally I dared to do an unscripted demo of MeeGo on a Netbook (for stupid reasons I had to show it on a somewhat bigger system, a ThinkPad X200s). I was able to show myZone, some of the apps (email, media), social media interactions and the breadth of additional software that is available.

Things went fairly well, if I can believe the comments on Twitter and what people told me afterwards in person.

The presentation is on the MeeGo presentation site

    Curious, I have a ThinkPad X200s too – however Meego doesn’t seem to recognise the Wireless network card – did you have any issues with this?
