Maliit - Input Methods for MeeGo
Overview · Development · Installing · Roadmap
Maliit2.png

Maliit provides a flexible and cross-platform input method framework, including a virtual keyboard. It works on all MeeGo user experiences, and in other GNU/Linux distributions.

Contents

Goals

Maliit aims to be the input method project for MeeGo and other GNU/Linux-based embedded/mobile platforms. To achieve this we should provide:

A solid input method framework

This includes support for traditional input methods such as hardware and virtual keyboards. More exotic input methods should also be possible, such as handwriting recognition and voice input, and special purpose input methods such as date/time pickers, tag clouds, etc.

A core set of input methods

The default set of input methods should demonstrate the core capabilities of the framework and provide a good user experience that device manufacturers and integrators can use easily.

We also aim to:

Empower third-party developers

Customizing existing input methods or developing powerful new input methods should be simple, regardless of whether it is for profit, research or fun.

Build a diverse community of contributors

Employees from different companies, freelancers, members of academia, hackers and volunteers should all be welcomed and encouraged to contribute to the project.

Communication channels

Mailing list: meego-inputmethods@lists.meego.com (listinfo | archives)

Bugtracker: bugs.meego.com, Product: OS, Component: Virtual Keyboard (open bugs | file new bug)

IRC: Visit us in #meego-inputmethods at freenode.net (webchat)

Upcoming events

  • June 24th, MeeGo Freeday workshop, details TBA.
  • August 6th-12th - Desktop Summit Berlin.
