martinharnevie Steve,

Truly brill if that's the case. OPL for v8, v9 & going forward concerns many. Deeply.
Thanks in advance to you & Ewan.

cheers

Interesting to note that 'honourware' is supported. In other words, as long as the software's 100% fully working (like most of my apps - grin!), then Nokia/Symbian will sign it free of charge.

No idea on the OPL runtime, although I'd imagine this being signed by Symbian - behind the scenes Ewan and I have managed to bend quite a few people's ears on this matter. Watch this space, we'll shout when we've talked to the right people at The Show 8-)

martinharnevie Would this be applicable to OPL editor, runtime and the OPXs for S80 & S60 beyond v7?

Rafe Nice on Nokia. Canny move too as hopefuly it will encourage more freeware programs which is nice.

I wonder how much this is going to impact the will / will not lock down debate on phones now freeware authors have a solution to the signing problem.
