http://news.meego.com aims to aggregate all the relevant MeeGo news sources and extract the best of it through community promotion and editorial work.
We are not quite there yet, but we want to have everything ready before the MeeGo 1.2 release.

The News section is reachable from several meego.com homepage blocks and the "News" item in the top navigation bar. It is made of different types of content. http://news.meego.com needs to combine them all in an efficient and nice looking way.

The proposal is to coordinate the work of this group through a private mailing list. The topics discussed need certain confidentiality before the publication of the news.

The maemo.org Midgard team has prepared a deployment of using Maemo's Midgard-based Social News system for MeeGo News. The system uses the regular meego.com accounts (though not yet sessions pending for Single sign-on deployment) via LDAP.
The deployment consists of:
This system still waits for integration with the main meego.com homepage.
