Texas Instruments, Telecom Italia and Chinese telecommunications company ZTE have joined the Linux Phone Standards (LiPS) Forum, the consortium said Wednesday. The effort is seeking to standardize the behavior of Linux on mobile phones to ease development, but it overlaps somewhat with a similar effort at the Open Source Development Labs.

Founding members of the LiPS Forum include ARM, France Telecom/Orange, FSM Labs, Huawei Technologies, Jaluna, MontaVista Software and PalmSource.
