          The way they explain convergence, unified UX over different platforms, etc. makes you wonder why they did not just choose Ubuntu Touch...

                    about UI patterns.

                    Seems to match some of Sailfish, UT, Google. "Swipe-based". Probably matches other OS' as well, I just don't know them well enough.

                    I'm not really sure where they are going with that though. If they want to use one of UT, Plasma, or Gnome, then the interaction will be defined by that project. Are they thinking about building their own shell/OS?!

                      HI @doniks

                      They said the librem5 would come out with Plasma and Plasma mobile team was leading the development.
                      In a second step they would release the gnome version, and yes they are the leading team for the development of a new mobile gnome interface.

                            @libremax Very interesting indeed. It also makes it clear that the UI designs are not for gnome but they do actually develop a shell themselves

                                  That "Web Key Directory" standard seems still to be based on the idea to require key servers, this time depending on the email providers.

                                  The decentralized https://autocrypt.org standard is based on doing peer-to-peer key distribution instead, and is already available also --at specification level 1-- in Deltachat, K-9 Mail, Enigmail (Firebird) and others.

                                        @doniks I have to say, I do like this idea of producing a SBC with this chipset and GSM.
