maemo (properly not capitalized [1]) is a project that oversees the development of the Internet Tablet OS and the maemo application development platform. The name maemo is also commonly used to refer to the Internet Tablet OS itself, though this usage isn't strictly correct. The maemo project is sponsored by Nokia.

[edit] maemo SDK

The maemo SDK is based around the Debian-oriented Scratchbox Cross Compilation Toolkit, which provides a sandbox environment in which development may take place. Scratchbox uses Qemu to emulate an ARMEL processor or sbrsh to remotely execute instructions. Scratchbox-compatible rootstraps are available for both x86 and ARMEL, so the majority of development and debugging takes place on x86, with final packaging being for ARMEL.[2]
