Ubuntu Touch Q&A 98 Saturday 10th Of April At 19:00 UTC

CarDav doesn't work to sync contacts.
You can import them using an existing export.CalDav is implemented and works fine with the agenda
-
I have Volla with UT and I use nextcloud server at home. Calendar sync wors, but it terribly lacks contacts sync. Should i expect full support for nextcloud in near future ?
-
In QA96 has been said that much of intellectual property rights are still with Canonical and UBports sublicence it. Would it be theoretically possible that Canonical kills UT in future simply by withdrawing this sublicence ? What will happen when some future Pres. of the USA impose sanctions on Europe/Germany similar as it happened with Huawei ?

Ubports Will support Rust?
-
@fakone you can already make Ubuntu Touch apps in rust using clickable, the issue is more that qt/qml doesnt have good bindings for rust, but yes you can make apps in rust for ubuntu touch.
-
@applee Thank you. Too bad CarDAV does not work. As I am not a developer, I would like to know if there is a blocking point for making CarDAV (for instance, incompatibility with Qt), or just because it is not the priority for the team (meaning it is possible) ?
Thank you

Would you consider promoting a new small, modern, high-performance UT smartphone of a size equivalent to the BQ 4.5? This one will depreciate due to the gradual shut down of 3G networks.
What smartphone would you choose ? -
@povoq You can unofficially dual boot A/B devices if you have UT installed on one slot and any other OS installed on another slot. You can switch slots easily using bootclt commands or use a GUI app like https://open-store.io/app/switch-my-slot.shouko to do that.
-
@shouko Yes I noticed that. I was rather wondering if there is a chance for more official support, maybe via the Ubports installer.

Honestly, I haven't tried to install UT to a newer Android (9+) phone hanving A/B slots. So I have no idea what A/B options are even possible with the current installer. But, yep, I'd really like to have a way to install to a "B" slot, while leaving Android in the "A" slot untouched (or vice versa.)
@UniSuperBox If not already possible (which it doesn't seem to be), I hope that, sometime in the future, the UT installer will allow for installing UT to a "B" slot, while leaving the factory-shipped Android in the "A" slot untouched (or vice versa).
If that's already possible, that would be welcome news to me, and so I hope that you'll discuss in this (or maybe a future) Q&A.

Just to say thank you for answering my question. I appreciate a lot that you take regularly time to answer people questions, I don't remember other OS teams doing like that.
