Where can I found this code? I understand that "hard work is already done by the excellent webkit" but I am looking code that can be used across diferent linux environments for loading the package format and access system APIs. thx, SauLo Skier,

The Tizen source is at https://review.tizen.org/git/ , organized by packages. It's hard to figure out where anything is. If <a href="https://review.tizen.org/git/?p=api/device.git;a=tree" rel="nofollow">this is the device API</a> , it seems to be a wrapper with a lot of Tizen-specific glue that calls into a vconf layer, e.g. vconf_notify_key_changed(VCONFKEY_SYSMAN_BATTERY_CAPACITY, battery_changed_inside_cb, NULL); and that C code doesn't match the <a href="http://specs.wacapps.net/devicestatus/#battery-aspect" rel="nofollow">actual WAC spec</a>. (It's interesting that the Tizen source still includes the Meego ivi "in-vehicle infotainment" code. Its torturous GTK/Qt/Efl Maemo/Meego/whatever history must impose a lot of legacy.) It does seem crazy that <em>every</em> new phone and tablet device saying the "Write HTML5 apps" mantra (BBX, Tizen, webOS are all based on Linux or workalikes and Webkit) is reinventing all this stuff. Maybe the <a href="http://wiki.merproject.org/" rel="nofollow">Mer project</a> can unify the implementations, but a volunteer effort trailing behind the carnage of Nokia decisions seems very understaffed for such a big job. @saulo,

But that remind me about plasma's windowed mode, so it might can make it way to "Real App" to Plasma Active. I’m not sure, but seems yet another google gadget?
