This was an extension of the GNOME Mobile and Embedded Initiative however it was confusing to many people mainly because of the preexisting Ubuntu Embedded Team which was working to get something like emdebian working for Ubuntu. The Ubuntu Embedded team was mainly looking at getting Ubuntu working on ARM based devices
The Ubuntu Mobile and Embedded Team starts work and as time passed, most of the focus was on getting hildon and moblin into Ubuntu, and porting to the new lpia architecture from Intel.
During the hardy cycle, there was work towards getting something to work on various devices, based on the "menlow" and "mccaslin" platforms from Intel.This work didn't complete within the hardy cycle, and continued in a PPA.
This resulted in the first release image of Ubuntu MI
