Thanks for your effort. Competing with mobile OS's was a mountain to
climb, and I actually thought you got pretty close to the peak!
If there's negative comments on this list, it's due to how far the
project came against the odds, and frustration at being so close. And
that people barely had time to take in the decision.
This has been one of the most brilliant communities anywhere. I hope
it continues in some sense, because the potential is still world
changing.
Thanks for keeping the list open, and all the best!
I do fully understand the negative comments. Communication was very
mismanaged in the latter stages. I do wonder if that is because Mark and
other higher ranking officials were agonising over the choice they had
to make.
It is easy to allow yourself to feel betrayed but take a step back and
use your head, not your heart. As was already mentioned a lot of cash
has gone into getting us this far and that is something to be eternally
grateful for. I for one have a few desktop apps out now which I owe to
UT, they are spin offs of another dev's phone app. So if it were not for
UT I would not have gotten my head round packaging and publishing on Ubuntu.
Most importantly I hate my phone, I hate every Android infested moment
since Ubuntu stopped working on it. I have had the tinyest taste of
perfection and how am I supposed to make do with anything else? I loved
my Ubuntu phone and I can't have any ill feeling toward any of the
people who gave me that experience. Here's to the next chapter in our
journey!
