I posted on the subject <a href=\"http:\/\/www.itwriting.com\/blog\/1812-microsoft-brings-silverlight-not-mono-to-linux-via-intel.html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>, including a quote from Microsoft\u2019s Brian Goldfarb:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Microsoft and Intel announced today that the two companies have agreed to work together to bring support for Silverlight 3 to Intel\u2019s Atom-based Mobile Internet Devices (MID). These Atom-based devices run on Windows and Moblin, an open source, Linux-based operating system targeted at Atom-based devices. In order to help bring Silverlight content to these devices, Microsoft has provided Intel with Silverlight source code and test suites, and Intel will provide Microsoft with an optimized version of Silverlight for Moblin devices that Microsoft can then redistribute to OEMs.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px\" dir=\"ltr\">Since then, Moblin has merged with Novell\u2019s Maemo to form <a href=\"http:\/\/meego.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">MeeGo<\/a> (though this is still work in progress), and we\u2019ve heard very, very little about Silverlight on either platform. The only snippet of news I have is that it was mentioned at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing and reported by Char Zvolanek, who said that it came up in the Meego Q&amp;A after regular sessions ended, and <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.intel.com\/idf\/2010\/04\/going_to_meego_and_other_desti.php\" target=\"_blank\">Silverlight will be supported in Meego&#160; version 1.1 in October<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px\" dir=\"ltr\">In May, the 1.0 version will be released, and with 1.1 coming out in October, there will be support for Silverlight, Java, and Air. Developers can write native or runtime apps that can be Java-based, Web-based, Silverlight-based, or Air-based.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px\">Today, another clue, but not a good one for Silverlight. Intel is holding an <a href=\"http:\/\/appdeveloper.intel.com\/en-us\/intel-application-lab\" target=\"_blank\">application lab on May 26th in San Jose<\/a>, for developing for the Intel AppUp store, either on Windows or Moblin. On the agenda: C\/C++ and Adobe AIR, and the upcoming Adobe AIR SDK for Moblin. No Silverlight.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px\">If anyone is going along, and can discover any news about Silverlight on Moblin, I\u2019d be interested to know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last September, Microsoft and Intel announced a port of Silverlight to Moblin Linux.
