Symbian Signed for open source apps
All About Symbian reports that Nokia is going to pay for all Series 60 and 80 freeware developers to have their apps Symbian Signed. If true this will finally allow open source to play nicely with newer Symbian-based phones.
Lack of a free path to get open source Symbian Signed has been a major stumbling block for potential Symbian developers, IMO. There are enough obstacles for future Symbian success without developers tripping up over this one. Good on ya Nokia for trouncing this problem before it got out of hand.
