Nokia launches open-source Web site

BARCELONA, Spain, Nov. 2 (UPI) -- Nokia Wednesday launched a Web site for open-source software projects that the company sees as encouraging new advances in wireless technology.

The site, OpenSource.nokia.com, was announced at a conference in Spain and will focus primarily on development of Series 60 (S60) browsers. Specifically, the Web site will bring together open-source developers of the Maemo, URI Query Agent and Python for the S60.

"The new portal demonstrates our commitment to open source activities, and it is a natural extension for our Forum Nokia online developer community," said Lee Epting, vice president of Forum Nokia.
