There's quite a bit of platform to be done before we really get started on
the applications -- plus there is the issue of how we approach applications
for different user interface architectures, device profiles and input
mechanisms. Hildon is the only UIA on its way towards inclusion in the GNOME
Mobile platform so far...

Much of the discussions have happened at events thus far, with a consensus
oriented approach. That will change through joining the release cycle and
having more regular discussion here (and potentially regular meetings, if
anyone thinks that will be useful).
