PAGICO OPENGL CODE
The code was published under EPL on 4 February 2010 Symbian Foundation reported this event to be the largest codebase moved to Open Source in history.
PAGICO OPENGL LICENSE
Its objective was to publish the source code for the entire Symbian platform under the OSI- and FSF-approved Eclipse Public License (EPL). Symbian was intended to be developed by a community led by the Symbian Foundation, which was first announced in June 2008 and which officially launched in April 2009.

Since then Nokia has been maintaining its own code repository for the platform development, regularly releasing its development to the public repository.

Nokia became the major contributor to Symbian's code, since it then possessed the development resources for both the Symbian OS core and the user interface. The Symbian platform was officially made available as open source code in February 2010. The platform has been designated as the successor to Symbian OS, following the official launch of the Symbian Foundation in April 2009.

Symbian OS and its associated user interfaces S60, UIQ and MOAP(S) were contributed by their owners Nokia, NTT DoCoMo, Sony Ericsson and Symbian Ltd., to the foundation with the objective of creating the Symbian platform as a royalty-free, open source software, under the OSI- and FSF-approved Eclipse Public License (EPL). In June 2008, Nokia announced the acquisition of Symbian Ltd., and a new independent non-profit organization called the Symbian Foundation was established. They include S60 ( Nokia, Samsung and LG), UIQ ( Sony Ericsson and Motorola) and MOAP(S) (Japanese only such as Fujitsu, Sharp etc.).
PAGICO OPENGL SOFTWARE
In June 1998, Psion Software became Symbian Ltd., a major joint venture between Psion and phone manufacturers Ericsson, Motorola, and Nokia.Īfterwards, different software platforms were created for Symbian, backed by different groups of mobile phone manufacturers. Symbian originated from EPOC, an operating system created by Psion in the 1980s. The Nokia 808 PureView was officially the last Symbian smartphone. The transfer was completed on 30 September 2011. Accenture will provide Symbian-based software development and support services to Nokia through 2016 about 2,800 Nokia employees became Accenture employees as of October 2011. On 22 June 2011 Nokia made an agreement with Accenture for an outsourcing program.
PAGICO OPENGL WINDOWS
On 11 February 2011, Nokia announced that it would use Microsoft's Windows Phone OS as its primary smartphone platform, and Symbian will be its franchise platform, dropping Symbian as its main smartphone OS of choice. The latest (and last) phone with Symbian is the Nokia 808 PureView. In May 2011 an update, Symbian Anna, was officially announced, followed by Nokia Belle (previously Symbian Belle) in August 2011. Symbian^3, was officially released in Q4 2010 as the successor of S60 and UIQ, first used in the Nokia N8, to use a single platform for the OS. UIQ, another Symbian platform, ran in parallel, but these two platforms were not compatible with each other. Symbian rose to fame thanks to the S60 platform built by Nokia, first released in 2002 and powering pretty much every Nokia smartphone. It was the most popular smartphone OS on a worldwide average until the end of 2010, when it was overtaken by Android, although in some developing nations, Symbian is still the biggest. Symbian was used by many major mobile phone brands, like Samsung, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, and above all by Nokia. The current form of Symbian is an open-source platform developed by Symbian Foundation in 2009, as the successor of the original Symbian OS. Symbian was originally developed by Symbian Ltd., as a descendant of Psion's EPOC and runs exclusively on ARM processors, although an unreleased x86 port existed. Symbian is a mobile operating system (OS) and computing platform designed for smartphones and currently maintained by Accenture.
