I currently use Android and seriously think about buying a Jolla Phone. Before I do that, I want to know whether the following features, which I heavily use with CyanogenMod and F-Droid currently are also supported:
Offline Vector Maps (like I have with OsmAnd~ on Android). I have a bike mount and put my current phone there. I can drive wherever I want and still have the vector maps of complete countries with me.
SSH Server. I want to be able to transfer files from my GNU/Linux machine to the phone via WLAN in the local network without having to plug it into USB.
WPA2 Enterprise. My university offers eduroam, which is a WPA2 Enterprise wireless network.
US Keyboard layout. Although I usually have the language set to German, I prefer the US keyboard layout. The Google Android version does not support this, but CyanogenMod allows me to switch the keyboard layout independently of the language.
Importing contacts from VCard. I do not like to import my contacts via some cloud service, I like to copy a VCard file onto the device and just import the contacts there.
CalDAV and CardDAV sync. This does not quite work with my Android devices now, but I'd like to have that in the future.
If this question does not fit the Q&A scheme here, please point me to the right community.
