Symbian Foundation is now stronger for two more members.
First comes Eclipse Foundation which joined the Nokia-led initiative — at the same time, Symbian Foundation joined Eclipse Foundation. Together the two companies will co-operate on many levels in activities such as the promotion of EPL as a business friendly license (Symbian OS will be offered under Eclipse Public License, FYI). There’s an “official blog post” at Symbian’s blog talking more on the subject.
The second company that joined the “Symbian wave” is InnoPath, which will work to “enhance the platform’s existing DM capabilities to quickly adapt to mobile operator care initiatives.” The company’s goal is to help increase the supportability of the platform and enhance the end user experience with over-the-air support and updates.
There you have it. Two more points for Symbian Foundation!

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
