WebOS Internals PDK

Scratchbox 2 is a cross-compilation engine, it can be used to create a highly flexible SDK.

SB2 is totally distribution neutral but is currently targeted for Linux. It is developed on Debian/sid. It's known to work at least on Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo and Fedora. Both x86 and amd64 architectures are supported.

For target systems you can do anything that Qemu or sbrsh supports.
