Non-controversial move request[edit]

Just going by the text in the article, we don't appear to be using "Moblin Project" as a proper name, but the move to Moblin (project) needlessly muddies the waters when Moblin redirects here. I've tagged Moblin to clear the way to move this article there, for simplicity's sake. MrZaius^talk 05:48, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Someone beat me to it - Thanks, MacGyverMagic! MrZaius^talk 12:16, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

vague definition[edit]

the article doesn't say what moblin is. it says "Moblin [..] is an open source project focused on developing software for Mobile Internet Devices" and almost immediately after that it says "current builds are designed to minimize boot times". This doesn't semantically make any sense. If it is a project focused on developing software, it can't be built. The software can be, but nowhere is that software defined to be moblin. In the second paragraph, it is apparently an OS, or at least Moblin 2 is. The main definition of the subject matter shouldn't need to be inferred from the rest of the article, i think.

Quite right. Fixed that for you, MrZaius^talk 05:32, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

missing content[edit]

The second (last?) paragraph of the intro section looks borked, truncated somehow. I'd put the word "project" and a period, but I'd bet that there was supposed to be more there.
