maemo summit: Fremantle and what it brings

Fremantle (maemo 5) is coming. There is a great deal of information about how it will help developers (SDK, maemo.org, online training, and the Nokia Forum.) On the consumer side, this includes the announcements in Ari Jaaksi's keynote.

The bullet point for multimedia said "encode and decode video at DVD resolutions" under the OMAP3 support. Looks like the new camera will support high-res video capture.

Here's a big announcement:
Hardware accelerated graphics with OpenGL ES 2.0 and Clutter.

Expect a full editorial on what all this means later.

The so-far-nonexistant http://maemo.nokia.com will also be a way to bridge from developers to Nokia. I'll link Nokia's official explanation of that in the near future.
