Someone asked this on reddit:
How to install Desktop App Scope on 16.04 RC?
The latest 16.04 RC has libertine container. However, desktop app scope is missing. How can I install that. Its not present in open store also. I have bq e5 hd. -
@diogo thank you for your opinion but I'm interested to listen to what the Q&A Team has to say
About Desktop App Scope, no, it's not missing, and it works out of the box.

@diogo is it not already there? Pull up on little white arrow at the bottom of app scope. That opens up scopes view it was there on my OPO and nexus 5

@advocatux Beat me to it : )

Whats the status of ubports on halium?
Last time I tried I was stuck at usc crashing. Are there any noteworthy improvements? Is it working for people? Should I try again?

Whats the status of ubports/unity8 on x86?
-
@diogo Why not it would be a good place to sell devices that can run UT, even Sailfish OS forum hase it and also Fairphone forum....
-
@lakotaubp I've no idea, I wasn't the one who made the question, and shamefully I don't have any device on xenial...
-
@xray2000 Because it has legal implications, selling things online has implications, and even allowing it has some. The fact that others do risky possibly illegal things doesn't mean we should.
-
@doniks asked for the status of ubuntu touch on x86... I'm especially interested whether sensors are working - for rotation in the first place - and if not, can you tell (in two sentences) what needs to be done for that, or point me to a document?

The other day Flo commented on the topic SDK, his intention is to solve all the problems it has. I don't know if those problems are easy or complicated to solve, if they need more or less time, but in my opinion after 4/16 when we are very close to a stable Xenial, it would be good to have the possibility of working with a stable SDK, it's important to have a general platform with sufficient guarantees in the creation of new applications.
Therefore, my question is ... In your current line of work, have you thought about working with the SDK to improve functionality?
Another question ... (I do not remember if we talk about this issue.) ..... The functionality of the battery, is it possible to improve the system on general, in terms of resources gestion for to have a best management of our batteries?
Thanks ... Good job! ... Great team !!

Hi @lakotaubp
I was wondering if data about our Matrix use could be incorporated into the Welcome Circle at some point - as the Telegram data is... Also, would it be possible to implement the response to Matrix messages directly in the Notifications Bar, as we can with SMSs...?

Please address the baseless assertion that "Unity8 for desktip (sic) is officially dead" that was recently posted by a reader in the Phoronix forums.
See the post, and my reply to it, here: https://www.phoronix.com/forums/forum/phoronix/latest-phoronix-articles/1038951-ubports-ubuntu-touch-unlikely-to-move-to-ubuntu-18-04-anytime-soon?p=1039276#post1039276
Note that, in response to the post, I tried to explain otherwise. But your explanation would carry more weight (and would probably be more accurate) than my explanation.
