Palm Posts WebOS Open Source Packages

Posted By: Ryan Kairer Friday, June 19, 2009 11:08:17 AM

Palm has lifted the curtain on its open source portal this morning. The new site provides information regarding Palm's usage of open source software. It also now contains the downloads for various open source components that have been included and or modified within WebOS.

The site has a listing of all the open source packages in use and has download links for the original tarball along with patch files which contain the modifications Palm's programmers have made.

Well, there you go. For anyone with the technical knowledge of what those packages are and do, it should be clear now what is and isn't opensource about webOS.

I still think it is cool how OSS works. Use what you want...., but you gotta give it back.

Hey Palm! Where's my PDA with Wifi and phone capabilities?
