[maemo-developers] Raemo on-device testing tool first public release

[From: Jami Pekkanen]

Hello,

I'm pleased to announce that Raemo 0.80 Beta is now released. Raemo
(Remote Application Execution for Maemo Os) is a tool that eases
on-device testing. Here's some of the release's features:

* Persistent remote sessions, so for example working directory is stored
across calls
* Session tracking which allows for example running different remote
shell instances from different TTYs
* Mounting the remote device's file system and running applications
inside the mount with automatic path resolving
* Remote device's screen can be imported to the desktop computer to ease
GUI program testing
* Object oriented server-client architecture which supports easily
adding new services and different backends in any programming language
supporting D-Bus
* Requires only a SSH server and optionally VNC running on the target
device
* Configuration files for easy startup

For more information see Raemo's project page[1] at garage and full
release notes and screenshots can be found at Raemo's home page[2]. To
get started see Raemo quickstart[3] If you are interested in Raemo's
internals and perhaps development, see the brief architecture
document[4].

All community contribution is greatly appreciated. Bug reports, feature
requests and patches are very welcome at the project page's[1] trackers.

(Please note that although this software is developed by Nokia, it's not
officially supported due to the early development status.)
