• What improvements and fixes for the Morph Browser are marked as "definitely will happen" for OTA-6? Biggest requests I have myself is to be able to sign into sites like Dropbox, and be able to upload files to various services via the browser itself.
• Any chance that camera zoom for the OnePlus One will get fixed in OTA-6 - or is this just a serious brickwall of an issue that will likely take much longer, if ever, to fix?
• Would UBports consider hosting crowd sourcing drives for specific native apps? E.g. on the Telegram channel there were two of us that were willing to put up $80 to help fund coding for a native Wire app - and I would be willing to donate $200 myself towards a native Lyft app. Seems to me if there was a place hosted on the UBports site where people could donate towards funding specific apps they desired - with any funds held in escrow by UBports itself - then greater funds could be raised, and the donors would have the confidence that their money would not be sent without a functional app getting delivered, and the coders would have the confidence that they would get all pledged monies as soon as they delivered the functional app.

Best regards,

WRT the comment by @totalsonic , it sounds like UBPorts should set up an account on BountySource. That would be awesome.

Also, back in the day, there was Ubuntu Brainstorm (does anybody remember that?). I do think it would be great if there was somewhere that the community could post their "wishlist" items and ideas for UT. Maybe that's BountySource, maybe some kind of idea voting app. Or maybe even just a wiki page somewhere. What's the likelyhood of having some place for those ideas to go? And, is the tracker really the best place for that? (Maybe it would be if we had the heat feature similar to launchpad).

Any news on widevine for the Morph Browser?
And what is the status of the foundation?

Hello extraordinary people,

Is the A-GPS or Mozilla Location Service (MLS) integrated in Ubuntu Touch?

If so, since when?

If not, is there a plan?

Thanks for all !!!

It says that this translation is currently locked in the update

When will it be open to translate these

• UBports/indicator-power
• UBports/indicator-sound
• UBports/indicator-"Date & Time"

So how do you guys deal with the translation of the content to the software application

[TotalSonic]

Has the UBports team received the Purism Librem 5 developer boards yet - and based on specs known so far, does it seem realistic that it will end up being a fully convergence capable device?

[dobey]

@bolly Yes, the Mozilla service has been integrated since I think the OTA-2 or such from a year ago.

[dobey]

@louies Why are these indicators only listed under the zh-hant translation though? I do not see them here, on the main components listing on translate page at all.

[A Former User]

@dobey Sorry I has been fixed

[dobey]

@louies I fixed indicator-power so it's uploaded all the existing translations from Launchpad into weblate, and Florian has unlocked it for translation updating now. I think there are still a couple missing strings, as the template was not updated when the flashlight (torch) feature was added, though.

I'll do similar for the other indicators soon.

[A Former User]

@dobey thanks you : ) Thanks for your painstaking!

@blanca12 This is the current Anbox thread https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1676/development-testers-for-anbox/12. which may help. Just for info these Q&A threads are for questions before the event take place. After the event there is a blog post of the event released which can be found here https://ubports.com/blog and a link is also posted in this New section when they are available.

@dobey Yeah we ened to make sure that also our core devs understand, when they add new strings, they need to localize it.
