The problems usually condense to old GTK+, GLib and no 3D (hardware). At least for me.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Nov 16, 2008 at 1:02 AM, Carsten Valdemar Munk <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:cvm@cs.au.dk">cvm@cs.au.dk</a>></span> wrote:<br>

So, as part of my continuing research for the Maemo Reconstructed<br>
proposal (<a href="http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_Reconstructed" target="_blank">http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_Reconstructed</a>), I would like to<br>
ask some questions to the subset of developers on this mailing list<br>
who deals with trying to port applications/software to Maemo.<br>
<br>
Normally what I read, is announcements about applications that -has-<br>
been ported, but what I'm really interested in, is hearing about the<br>
applications you had to give up on getting ported to the Maemo<br>
platform after doing an honest effort, and why you had to give up.<br>
<br>
It is my hope that this survey will highlight ways to help make Maemo<br>
a better platform for developers and easier to port to.<br>
<br>
So, questionaire:<br>
<br>
* What application/software did you want to port to Maemo?<br>
* What did you try to port it based on? (Ubuntu/Debian source package,<br>
tar.gz, svn, ..etc.)<br>
* What was the show-stopper(s) that made you give up on trying to port<br>
this application to Maemo?<br>
* If you know, what would be the fixes to be made, for these<br>
show-stoppers if they were to be fixed in the Maemo platform?<br>
<br>
