Hello,

Today (Nov 23rd) at 13:00 UTC we have published new installers and repositories 
of the Sailfish OS SDK. This SDK release is called 1611 and it matches Jolla 
Release 2.0.5.

Please, read the following notes about the Early Access SDK:
- By using the Early Access SDK developers can test their Sailfish OS apps a 
week before the Sailfish OS release is made public
- During the early access time the Early Access SDK should not be used for 
submitting apps to the Jolla Harbour
- The installers for this release of the SDK are available at 
http://sailfishos.org/wiki/Application_SDK_Early_Access#Latest_Early_Access_SDK_Release
- Instructions for adding the early access repository into the SDK can be found 
from 
http://sailfishos.org/wiki/Application_SDK_Early_Access#Receiving_Early_Access_SDK_Updates_Automatically

If you add the early access repository into your SDK and have an older beta 
release of the SDK, you should see an update notification [1] in the Sailfish 
OS IDE. Otherwise, you will see an update notification [1] in the Sailfish OS 
IDE, when the Jolla Release 2.0.5 is publicly available to all users.

#####
[1] Please note, that due to a bug in 1609 and 1609-1 SDK releases, you will 
not automatically see the update notification. If you're using either of those 
releases, you have to manually check for updates by starting the 
SDKMaintenanceTool from the Sailfish OS SDK installation directory.
#####

SDK content matches Jolla Release 2.0.5.6 (Haapajoki). Please see below for 
detailed information of the changes.

A couple of things you should be aware of:
- As before, in this update the build engine, emulator and targets are 
reinstalled so you will lose all changes you may have made in those - However, 
if your application packaging is done correctly, rebuilding your projects 
should reinstall the packages you have been using.
- Any customization done to SDK (adding new package repositories, adding custom 
targets, additional source paths) will be removed during the installation 
process so make your own backup of those before starting the update.
- If you import existing projects made with a previous version of the Sailfish 
OS SDK, make sure to select the correct kit in the project configuration step. 
Both ARM and i486 kits are available.
- Package repository contents have been updated and consequently using a 
previous SDK version with these package repositories is not supported.
- For more information, please see the SDK Beta-Qt5 known issues list.
