One problem that may appear is for example for codec's. An example: 1. An MP3 codec will not be part of the core components of MeeGo (not open-source, licensing...) (correct?). 2. All commercial devices out there will have an MP3 codec pre-installed, even though MP3 is not a required MeeGo package. 3. The compliancy-requirement thus requires a software developer that needs MP3 functionality to licence an MP3 codec, even though it is already on all target systems? This is a huge cost for a small ISV... Any way to work around this?
