Unsure. They live in osso-af-startup in maemo, which is on the list of things to ignore for now. We might want to bring that in now; Adilson? | > == mobile-image-creation == | > | > The implementation here is coming along quite nicely, but we need to | > work out how to build the package, as this currently requires root | > access and all the Ubuntu builds are done as non-root users. | | Why does it require root? If it's because it ships a pre-built | chroot, perhaps that could be built separately (like the livefs | image), especially since it will be updated out of sync with the | builder. Yes, it ships a pre-built chroot which is built as part of the package build process. I was also thinking about doing something like the livefs images. | > The other problem is how to handle the initramfs creation. | | What's the issue here? project-builder doesn't know how to create them. I am not entirely sure what the problem is, since it should just be grabbing the initramfs from the bootstrapped image. | > == mobile-ui == | > | > Control panel is not there yet, but the UI as such is moving in the | > right direction, and a «big-icon» UI is already working.

Pending any code, I believe this should be mostly a copy of the already existing theme packages and starting to package anything before we know the shape of it is hard. | > We want to make daily (or nightly) builds of ubuntu mobile happen | > now. | | Indeed. I outlined earlier on the list what I thought were the | steps in order to get this done; do you agree with them? Are there | any other blockers I should be aware of? Yes, I believe those steps are enough and I am not aware of any more blockers. | One item for which I don't think we have a spec dedicated is the | list of existing apps to be found, evaluated, packaged and included | in ubuntu-mobile to meet functional requirements. Adilson has begun | working on the first stages of this. I think it would be wise to | create a spec, if only to hold the list of applications pending, | have a place to collect comments, and track the overall status of | working through the list (it doesn't need to be detailed). Agreed. I also rescued the mobile keyboard specification (which ubuntu-mobile wasn't subscribed to, so it escaped me). This needs writing up; I'll follow up on that. -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile
