What's next, or what issues have been resolved?

I understand that it's time-consuming—and often impossible—for developers to document what progress has been made.
But for “regular” users who are eagerly awaiting progress, it’s not easy to stay on board without such updates.
Perhaps the lead developers could at least publish a brief summary of the new features once a month.
This would also help demonstrate that Ubuntu Touch is making steady progress and is far from being abandoned.

Hello,
There is a roadmap about Lomiri (one for Ubuntu Touch and one for Debian) here: https://ubports.com/lomiri-roadmap

You can also get news in the blog section : https://ubports.com/blog

For more technical insight : https://gitlab.com/groups/ubports/-/activity

There is a live Q&A session on YouTube, where developers talk about recent progress every two weeks. You can read what was said here: https://ubports.com/blog
There are also other posts there that may interest you.

@MarcelloTogg my recent post may be of help to you. Basicly the replies here will be "go figure! All the info is there". I did went and figured. You are welcome.

Why so negative?

@MarcelloTogg I went and checked all three links provided.

The roadmap (ubports DOT com/lomiri-roadmap) covers Lomiri's packaging journey into Debian —
historical milestones since 2020 and two vague estimates for Lomiri on Debian desktop.
There is no roadmap for Ubuntu Touch itself. No page that says "here is where the OS
stands, here is what we are working toward." It does not exist.

The blog is a reverse-chronological archive of Q&A transcripts and release announcements.
Valuable if you have time to read 185 biweekly sessions and synthesize them yourself.
Not a summary. To their credit, the transcripts are detailed — but that is raw material,
not communication aimed at regular users asking exactly your question.

The GitLab activity feed is raw commits. No context, no narrative, not useful to
anyone who is not already a developer on the project.

Your question is reasonable. "Where are things and where are they headed?" is the most
natural thing a user could ask. The honest answer is that there is no concise, maintained
answer to that question available anywhere on ubports DOT com right now.

That is not a criticism of the developers — maintaining documentation alongside the
actual work is genuinely hard with a small volunteer team. But pointing someone toward
those three links as if they answer your question is not accurate.

I spent several months reading through the Q&A archives and forum history to piece
together the picture myself. The short version is in a post I linked earlier in this
thread — not because I want to be negative, but because I think you deserved an actual
answer.
