Android version of Mixtikl coming along

The tidy-up phase of the Android port of Mixtikl is coming on nicely. My shortlist of things to do is getting very short. :)

This looks very useful... (thanks to Chris for the pointer!)

Mixtikl on Android

The Mixtikl port to Android has been making further good progress; I think we're now only a couple of weeks from first release... it is working pretty well on my HTC Hero device, as I type this.

Hopefully we'll be able to follow-suit with Symbian once the Android version is out of the door...!

MeeGo - how to download the source code using Cygwin / Windows

You can get the very latest MeeGo source code from here:

http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/devel/trunk/repo/source/

I downloaded all the rpm files easily enough using wget (under cygwin, on my Windows machine).

To extract the contents of the downloaded rpm files, do this for each rpm file (assuming you have the rpm tools installed with cygwin!):

rpm2cpio filexyz.rpm | cpio -idmv --no-absolute-filenames

Then...

For each extracted myfile.tar.gz file, do this:
tar -xvf myfile.tar.gz

And...

For each extracted myfile.tar.bz2 file, do this:
tar -jxvf myfile.tar.bz2

You will then have all the latest MeeGo source code extracted to your computer!
