OSCON wrapped up last week here in Portland, so I wanted to take a few minutes to summarize a few of the many MeeGo activities at the conference. I already highlighted several of the key sessions with blog posts:

• Got MeeGo? OSCON Keynote by Dirk Hohndel
• MeeGo Technical Overview: OSCON Presentation from Sunil Saxena
• MeeGo - The Mobile Linux Platform: OSCON Presentation by Michael Meeks

Novell has provided significant contributions to MeeGo and to its predecessor, Moblin, so it was interesting to watch Michael Meeks from Novell give his perspective on MeeGo during his session at OSCON: MeeGo - The Mobile Linux Platform.

In this presentation he talked about a number of interesting MeeGo features and talked about what makes MeeGo distinctive.

Today is the first day of the main OSCON event here in lovely Portland, Oregon, and we were fortunate to have a MeeGo presentation during the opening keynotes. Here is a brief summary of what Dirk Hohndel covered during his time on stage.

We had another great month for the MeeGo community, and again this month, we had a significant increase in community activity! As of the end of June, we had 9626 members on MeeGo.com (up from 7993 in May), 4210 subscribers to the meego-dev mailing list (up from 3775 in May) and there were over 6093 posts across the mailing lists and forums (up from 3600 in May).
