Tizen is an open source software platform and operating system which is capable of playing nice with a wide range of connected devices. The new members will also be given the opportunity to join relevant Tizen Association Working Groups as well as to participate in Tizen Association meetings, which results in more access, insight and input into the development of the Tizen OS.
The 15 new members in alphabetical order are AccuWeather, Acrodea, Baidu, CloudStreet, Cyberlightning, DynAgility, Gamevil, Inside Secure, Ixonos, Nomovok, Piceasoft, Red Bend Software, SoftBank Mobile, Sprint and ZTE. These will join other luminaries among the existing Tizen partners such as eBay, KONAMI, McAfee, and Panasonic among others. Do you see this as a positive move for Tizen, that the OS will be able to gain more traction among users in due time? [Press Release]
