What is the CE Linux Forum?

The CE Linux Forum is a non-profit organization (complying with California state laws) established in 2003 under the leadership of Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. and Sony Corporation to create an international community for open source software developers. Since then, the Forum has played an active and leading role in making Linux an invaluable shared resource for embedded devices. Some of the common themes that have occupied Forum members in this pursuit include reduction of power consumption and the development of middleware.

Although CE stands for Consumer Electronics, the Forum does not confine its activities to a narrow definition and aims to address all areas of embedded system development. The Forum also maintains close ties to the other organizations to contribute to the expansion of the Linux world. Benefiting from the nature of open sources, engineers of the highest caliber work together within the CE Linux Forum, without regard to corporate boundries and national borders.
