I don't speak lawyer, but what I understood is this: 1. Going forward, we'll allow two licensing tiers: full package and light 2. All manufacturers selling phones in the EU will have to choose the licensing level for new devices

Something tells me vendors will be _encouraged_ to choose a particular licensing model or Google will make the full integration cheaper to keep Chrome and Search on as many devices as before this change.

Oh my, how I miss Maemo...

Sailfish OS still exists in the EU, which is the descendant of Maemo.
