After first being announced in November of last year as a last ditch effort to save Symbian following the failure of the Symbian Foundation to reach its stated goals, the European Commission’s SYMBEOSE initiative has been canceled without the intended 22 million euro loan changing hands.
The SYMBEOSE consortium was intended to turn Symbian into a pan European operating system with support from manufacturers in order to drive research and development for new devices. With Nokia’s shift away from Symbian towards Windows Phone this February, Nokia has once again shifted Symbian away from a community project to a per license model intended for manufacturers to contribute to the platform.
