Revision history [back]

Hi everybody,

After a switch back to Android few month ago on my Sailfish X, (see the reasons why).

Now my smartphone experience is worst than ever: Xperia X is not the hardware I was looking for, and Android is really not for me. Today I don't see a decent smartphone running Android (XA2 is not my taste)

That said, I have the project of porting Sailfish OS on the best smartphone of 2019. Additionally making Anbox project running on Sailfish OS is one another goal, but I know this step is the big one. This would make Sailfish available for the crowd (Android support needed for this).

Unfortunately I now that driving this project alone is not possible today because this need too much spare time. Thus I'm looking for interest from some people, especially developers, in order to create a dev team.

This how I would see the project:

• Stage 0: gather enough interest from dev and community to start the project.
• Stage 1: ask the community to vote for a smartphone
• Stage 2: gather needed skills for this project (qml/c++, kernel, drivers, libhybris gurus)
• Stage 3: organize weekly meeting and start a roadmap
• Stage 4: eventually make a crowdfunding for buying devices
• Stage 5: develop & release

Am I utopist? Do you see any interest in this? What are your thought? Please upvote if you like the idea.

Thanks for reading
