LiPS kisses LiMO’s tailpipe for mobile Linux

Two of the leading mobile Linux mobile standardization efforts are merging with LiPS (Linux Phone Standards) joining LiMO (Linux Mobile).

Well maybe merging is the wrong word since that might imply a union of equals. The wording used by LiPS in their press release is; “To support and to unify the growing momentum of Linux platforms in the global mobile market, the Linux Phone Standards (LiPS) Forum announced that its activities and membership will be folded into LiMo Foundation as of July, 2008.”

So LiPS folds.
