However, the stores are also contstrained by what the devices are able
to do.

Right now, for example, packages for the N900 in the Ovi Store can not
have dependencies to packages in Maemo Extras, although Maemo Extra is
enabled on all N900 devices.  The Application Manager on the N900 simply
doesn't do the right thing.

Thus, MeeGo Core Compliance does play a role in what stores can do.  A
MeeGo device has a interface to applications that needs to be regulated
in the compliance spec, but it also has a interface to the store
services, which also needs to be regulated.

There might be more interfaces to more services, such as
backup-in-the-cloud, and all the rest of Ovi, but we are concentrating
on applications right now, and the app stores thus are in the picture
already now.
