{{Lowercase}} {{for|the mobile device operating system|Internet Tablet OS}} '''maemo''' (properly not capitalized <ref>{{Cite web |url=http://maemo.org/intro/trademarks/trademark_faq.html |title=Maemo Trademark FAQ |access-date=2008-06-16 |archive-date=2008-05-18 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080518121131/http://maemo.org/intro/trademarks/trademark_faq.html |url-status=dead }}</ref>) is a project that oversees the development of the [[Internet Tablet OS]] and the maemo application development platform. The maemo project is paid for by [[Nokia]]. == maemo SDK == The maemo SDK is based around the [[Debian]]-oriented [[Scratchbox|Scratchbox Cross Compilation Toolkit]], which provides a [[Sandbox (software development)|sandbox]] environment in which development may take place. Scratchbox uses [[Qemu]] to emulate an ARMEL processor or [[sbrsh]] to remotely execute instructions. Scratchbox-compatible [[rootstrap]]s are available for both [[x86]] and [[Armel|ARMEL]], so the majority of development and debugging takes place on x86, with final packaging being for ARMEL.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://maemo.org/maemo_training_material/maemo4.x/html/maemo_Technology_Overview/Chapter_05_Software_Development_Process_for_maemo_SDK.html#OverviewofthesoftwaredevelopmentprocessusingthemaemoSDKenvironment |title=Overview of the software development process using the maemo SDK environment |access-date=2008-06-16 |archive-date=2009-02-02 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090202104604/http://maemo.org/maemo_training_material/maemo4.x/html/maemo_Technology_Overview/Chapter_05_Software_Development_Process_for_maemo_SDK.html#OverviewofthesoftwaredevelopmentprocessusingthemaemoSDKenvironment |url-status=dead }}</ref> ==Related pages== * [[Openmoko]] * [[LiMo Foundation]] * [[Hildon]] * [[Android (mobile phone platform)]] == References == {{reflist}} == Other websites == * [http://www.maemo.org maemo.org] * [http://wiki.maemo.org maemo wiki] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080828192419/http://wiki.mae
