Opportunity with Autmotive Linux

[Sriram Ramkrishna <sri ramkrishna me>]

You guys might have recalled the keynoe from Nathan last year regarding the Tizen stack.  If you read this article:

You can see that AGL is working on their own distro based on Tizen-IVI.  Now, if you recall there are a lot of GNOME components that are included in Tizen-IVI, and I think we have an opportunity.  While Tizen was really about HTML5 applications, car manufacturers want to write native apps.  If we can send someone to an automotive conference to talk about the GNOME stack, I think we could really make a difference and take GNOME into some cool places.

After all, what would a stripped down GNOME environment for a car look like? That would be pretty interesting.. I would love to see a GSOC project for this.
