Nokia donates Java runtime to Symbian

Via gcn.com, Nokia announced that they will donate their Java runtime engine to the Symbian Foundation.

“The JRT is available in the latest Symbian Product Development Kit (PDK), which is the first PDK based on the Symbian^3 operating system”

“This means that developers can write Java applications for Symbian^3 devices, like the recently announced Nokia N8,” wrote Nokia’s JRT product manager, Aleksi Uotila, and senior software specialist Jyrki Aarnos, in a blog post. “More importantly, the JRT is now open source so the community can modify and add to the JRT implementation under the terms of the [Eclipse Public License].”

Here are more details.
