I didn't touch the README. You downloaded the old 15.04 version. Please build the app for 16.04 using Clickable instead. I don't plan to maintain the app, just wanted to show it is still mostly functional, in case anyone wants to pick it up.

It still works well on Ubuntu Touch. I added a clickable.json and changed the framework to 16.04: https://gitlab.com/jonnius/scriptor
If someone is interested in maintaining the app, please just fork the repo and release it to the OpenStore. The README needs to be cleaned up and the busybox download in app does not seem to work. But I don't think it is even necessary, so maybe it could just be removed.

• There is a brain dump by Marius, where he started with Raspbian.
• There are official Ubuntu Core images
• There are some unofficial Ubuntu server images
• There is also Ubuntu Mate 16.04 for Raspberry Pi

What would be the best to start with?

Fluffy Chat Flutter is the cross-platform version of Fluffy Chat, providing full E2E support and being actively developed. The QML version of Fluffy Chat will only be maintained on a low level until Fluffy Chat Flutter works on Ubuntu Touch as well (requiring Wayland support afaik), which will make the QML version completely obsolete.

Unfortunately the QML version we have at the moment does not support E2E. As the airport in Berlin is coming close to be opened, we want to provide you with a temporary solution: Pantalaimon.

Pantalaimon is provided by the Matrix Foundation and described as:

Pantalaimon is an end-to-end encryption aware Matrix reverse proxy daemon. Pantalaimon acts as a good man in the middle that handles the encryption for you.

Messages are transparently encrypted and decrypted for clients inside of pantalaimon.

You can find instructions as well as possible next steps in my repository. Feel free to test, provide feedback and jump in to improve it.

Update: Source code and releases: https://sr.ht/~thrrgilag/pantalaimon-ut/

As far as I see Snappy Ubuntu Core has a very similar approach to Ubuntu Touch with a read-only filesystem and there is an official download for the Raspberry Pi. I wonder how this could be interesting for us? Could'nt it even be a good base for Ubuntu Touch at all, assuming we'd want to switch from click to snap packages, if that would be necessary then.

Just my personal opinion: I'd suggest skipping the cross-compiling for now and focus on publishing the app to the Open Store, maybe with a bit of polishing first. I have tried to do the cross-compiling once and it is not straight-forward. Btw, the links on your releases page give 404ers.

Are you guys interested in another meet-up in Munich? Maybe this time as a real coding workshop, working on Apps, Unity8, Halium ports or whatever?

@twinkybot the blog post is online: https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-blog-1/post/the-ubports-munich-meet-up-on-march-17th-18th-108
The interview (in German) as already been published on 29th of March: https://ikhaya.ubuntuusers.de/2018/03/29/interview-mit-jan-sprinz-von-ubports/

Thanks to @twinkybot and Valtech GmbH for being a great host! I am working on the interview and blog post. Hopefully I can finish them this weekend...

I would love to see a video like that one for the phone!

Instead of using libertine you could put your server in your home directory and add an upstart service for it. Or create an unconfined app that does the very same, allowing you to use Clickable for compiling, adding dependencies and such.

Fractal had the picture issue as well and they solved it: https://github.com/matrix-org/pantalaimon/issues/61

It works here on my Pinephone. Does the Pantalaimon app display something like pantalaimon start/running, process 1234?

It works fine for me. Great work!

I have not read the whole thread. All these limitations will go away some day. OSM Scout Server can be triggered automatically in background when Pure Maps tries to reach it (via a systemd socket). So no need to manually disable app suspension, no need to manually start OSM Scout Server and no need to close it afterwards. All this is already supported by OSM Scout Server and Pure Maps and will be available once we got Systemd in UT.

The OSM Scout Server will need to remain unconfined unfortunately.

Thanks for this effort! Could you configure the CI to keep its artefacts a little longer? I am on the road and latest build already has its artefacts removed.
