[maemo-developers] Official UI Design documentation for Maemo 5 now archived in forum.nokia.com

[From: ext-mox.soini at nokia.com]

Hi all,

There is already good documentation available on wiki.maemo.org regarding UI Design of Maemo 5.
In particular there's the Maemo 5 Human Interface Guidelines at:
http://wiki.maemo.org/index.php?title=Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Human_Interface_Guidelines


The above document and the other documentation in wiki.maemo.org, has always been public
already in previous releases like Maemo 4.x (Diablo) etc. The Maemo 5 versions of that documentation are just an evolution of
The Maemo 4.x documentation. In a way, you could think of that as "community documentation" or
"SDK documentation".

At the same time, there's been requests to open up the UI documentation used internally in Nokia by the whole Fremantle,
so that all the details can be really known with certainty.

And today, that request can be marked as "Fixed in Fremantle" :)

Those of you who are already familiar with the Maemo 5 Human Interface Guidelines will notice there's overlap in the documentation.
That's quite expected as the each document has its own "roots".

There's ongoing work to make sure that there's no conflicts between the forum.nokia.com documentation and the wiki.maemo.org.
Just remember that the forum.nokia.com is really a document archive in terms of Maemo 5 documentation. All the "live" updating work
and collaboration continues to focus on wiki.maemo.org and other maemo.org sites.

Enjoy,

     Mox
