Template:Alphabet Task Force

Inconsistency regarding target platform?

To quote: Fuchsia is designed to run on a variety of devices, including mobile phones and personal computers. and in the info box it says Marketing target IoT. Now these aren't completely exclusive, but I think it should be cleared up, because that sounds like "everything", in which case it maybe should be labeled a general purpose operating system. Also does Google really market the OS (yet)?--Athaba (talk) 17:08, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Pink + Purple == Fuchsia

Fuchsia is described by Google as "Pink + Purple == Fuchsia (a new Operating System)."

Incidentally Pink was to be a completely new object-oriented OS implemented in C++ on top of a new microkernel, running a new GUI that nevertheless looked and felt like the existing Mac. In addition to running programs written for Pink, the system was to be capable of running existing Mac OS programs.
Purple 2 is Apple's codename for the 1st gen iPhone (iOS 1)

Can you explain how these two things are related to the subject of the article, except "Pink + Purple == Fuchsia (a new Operating System)?" How can we verify that the "Pink" and the "Purple" in that description is referring that two things? Emphrase - 💬 | 📝 12:46, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"According to public statements by Fuchsia team members, Purple refers to Project Purple, which was the original iPhone project. And Pink is a reference to Taligent, Apple's failed experiment to replace its classic Mac OS with a new operating system."-IEEE.org article --Ne0 (talk) 08:32, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

SVG Logo?

For nearly every logo exists in the Wikipedia an SVG file.
But the Fuchsia Logo is an 200x200 pixel png file.
Possible it was taken from the github page of Fuchsia

But the image on github have a different color.
It seems, that the first version in large size was published at
https://twitter.com/chrismckillop/status/841910948063506432
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C68Rg2MW0AAYnm-.png
There you can also see, that it was created with an vector graphic program.
So an SVG-file of it is still missing.
It is possible to create with this
http://image.online-convert.com/convert-to-svg
from the png file an svg file. But if you zoon in, you see edges.
So the svg file have to be really drawn, not automatical generated.
