It's your opinion. Others may have opinions too. 14:43:38 testing needs to be complerted first, and i do not know if i have tools /ressources for that 14:43:47 *completed 14:43:48 tn 14:44:04 then submit it with that note and see if anyone else volunteers to do that with you 14:44:36 +1 14:44:45 sounds right 14:45:10 #info Fabio Isgro community 14:45:26 #info tortoisedoc doesn't have tools/resources for testing the patch, he might submit it with note 14:45:40 anything else for this topic? 14:45:52 we have still 5 minutes :) 14:46:10 think we're fine to move on - tortoisedoc ? 14:46:15 ok 14:46:20 :) 14:46:22 ok, thanks :) 14:46:31 moving on then 14:46:36 #topic Request more information on Roadmap for open-sourcing more of Sailfish - bobsummerwill (20 min) 14:46:37 thanks to you! 14:46:58 M-bobsummerwill, stage is yours 14:47:29 Question for all the backers 14:47:31 https://twitter.com/AciidXOR/status/667335663130386432 14:47:54 Aciid: we're in the middle of an agenda item, feel free to use the 'general discussion' later on. 14:48:00 oh, sorry. 14:48:04 Aciid, as Stskeeps said 14:48:09 Sorry - yep 14:48:11 M-bobsummerwill, ahoy, are you here 14:48:37 So pretty simple ... there have been various hints at revealing a roadmap for Open Sourcing. 14:49:08 So what is the plan? More than ever, I think Sailfish OS needs to be fully open sourced. 14:49:28 Please come somebody from Jolla talk to that? 14:50:03 Stskeeps: you posted a "stay tuned" on TMO about that topic a while ago 14:50:35 so, i'll be handling this one today.. just starting out a bit, i'm sure you've all read the news today, that we've had delays in financing rounds and aiming to get back on our feet during december and we likely are employing solutions to recover from this delay, including personell layoffs, so this keeps the attention of our board/shareholders/management elsewhere 14:50:40 Also given recent developments? 14:50:44 and making things challenging 14:50:56 #info #info M-bobsummerwill: "there have been various hints at revealing a roadmap for Open Sourcing." 14:50:59 #info M-bobsummerwill: "So what is the plan? More than ever, I think Sailfish OS needs to be fully open sourced." 14:51:18 what i will talk about today is not a promise, but what's currently being discussed on board level in the company, where no decision has been made 14:51:25 to gather community input on the direction 14:52:30 How many people are "the board" 14:52:33 ? 14:52:46 dr_gogeta86: i think 7, but that's not really relevant for this topic :) 14:53:23 I talking about recovery plan ... 14:53:33 what about Silica components? They were promised to be open sourced "soon" on FOSDEM 2013, it's end of 2015 14:53:36 so, the general idea would be that sailfishOS UI code would be under a triple license, lgplv2/gplv3 or under a commercial license - with a hosted git instance on jolla/sailfish infrastructure, with a contribution license agreement needed in order to have any submissions merged 14:53:41 a little like qt 14:53:49 #info Stskeeps: "what i will talk about today is not a promise, but what's currently being discussed on board level in the company, where no decision has been made to gather community input on the direction" 14:53:52 thats the point 14:53:57 based on industry standard harmony http://www.harmonyagreements.org/docs/ha-combined-v1.html agreements 14:54:31 this CLA would allow us to relicense to commercial license terms, but also at same time, require us to keep your contribution available under that open source license you submitted under 14:54:53 the process for this would be lightweight, ie, see text, press OK 14:55:05 or a little longer if you're a company entity 14:55:31 not longer then OpenHeadSeatAlliance and google certification I think 14:55:39 Are there still blocking point to achieve this, other than taking the actual decision? 14:55:50 this does not mean a contributor would not assign his copyright, only giving a copyright license 14:56:04 er, this does not mean a contributor would assign his copyright, only give a copyright license 14:56:51 now, sailfishos is not only code, there's a number of things such as artwork, trademarks, logos, OS development know-how, which would be available under creative commons non-commercial terms 14:56:58 or a commercial license 14:57:21 .. and that's the basics of it, any comments so far? 14:57:21 ok, a "general idea", but any concrete actions? Lot of time passed since FOSDEM 2013, is there any concrete timeline? When Silica UI be open sourced? 14:57:35 Tofe: decision needs to be made by our investors 14:57:48 Sounds reasonable 14:57:54 yes 14:57:55 I think it is a good pattern. 14:58:05 sounds intriguing 14:58:12 sounds good to me 14:58:12 sounds like a smart move 14:58:19 just really needs a good implementation 14:58:22 there's naturally also 3rd party sailfishos stuff like alien dalvik, input method dictionaries, exchange support which are only part of a commercial license 14:58:23 sounds good 14:58:24 Do we get to sign ? Where do I sign ? :-D 14:58:25 definitely a good move considering the times 14:58:33 do note that this is just theory at this point :)_ 14:58:40 and subject to change 14:58:42 sounds great 14:58:43 Presumably there is a bunch of "operational" work which would need to happen, scrubbing through everything, etc 14:58:50 so we don't run into things like the issues on github where pull requests are just closed with "read the guidelines" 14:58:51 Stskeeps : what timeframe do you envision? 14:58:58 will not mind contributing under this arangement 14:59:05 (assuming there is one) 14:59:14 tortoisedoc: given the current situation i don't want to give any thoughts on that 14:59:22 Stskeeps: 3rd party stuff of course, still would be great to license this stuff per device via Jolla store 14:59:22 Ok so it was said to be open source, but now we learn it's up to decision of investors and they of course can say "no" 14:59:27 Morpog: yes 14:59:37 Stskeeps : so its pending, but pending what? 14:59:38 naturally jolla needs to be sustainable 14:59:42 as you well, can see :) 14:59:56 fk_lx, they can say "no" but they can also say "yes" :-) 14:59:58 ah ok :) 15:00:00 so that's why there is a tiny bit of drive towards getting a commercial license in practice to do a device 15:00:35 as well that let's say, 100.000 phones can be felt on infrastructure costs 15:00:43 ced117: wasn't it decided already in 2003, when Jolla said it will be open source. So they said that without any responsibility just to attract FOSS communities? 15:00:49 Ok, all this is good to hear at last, even if I'm a bit worried the "investors" won't see the point of open-sourcing something 15:01:00 Stskeeps: btw the DISPLAY issue is not in the version of xdg-utils in the mer master but it was in the latest release 1.1.1 15:01:25 regarding CLA it could be as easy as https://github.com/clabot/clabot 15:01:34 tigeli : in the release of what? 15:01:43 tortoisedoc: tigeli: #mer please 15:01:59 Tofe: if shareholders don't want something, it's nothing the company can do anything about, they are the owners of the company :) 15:02:03 5 minutes 15:02:04 but let's see 15:02:11 so again nothing concrete, an idea, depending on investors, typical 15:02:17 tortoisedoc, tigeli: like lbt said, #mer please 15:02:29 fk_lx : such is life :) 15:02:31 I like the combined commercial/GPL pattern, because it lets the corporations with the money pay to participate while keeping the path to freedom open for the rest of us, where permissive licenses let the corporations pay nothing. 15:02:39 fk_lx, sure they said that, but as Stskeeps pointed, inverstors need to do a decision, and they still havent done it. dont ask me why 15:03:07 on the other hand; if you are not a company entity, just a private developer, does it mean you cannot apply a commercial license? 15:03:36 ced117: they shouldn't say that it will be open source and put it on slide of open source components. But it was easier to give a promise, that today they didn't know if it will materialize 15:03:37 or am i getting this wrong? 15:03:41 it would also, in my opinion, mean that all the sailfishos platform code would be considered as under open source licenses 15:04:38 .. so, any more questions? 15:04:48 what change for porters ? 15:04:58 dr_gogeta86: nothing in practice, you're already using it under non-commercial terms 15:05:13 1 minute 15:05:21 I see alien and otherbits as showstopper for sfos 15:05:25 maybe we porters can then get fixes in faster in ui side 15:05:32 so nothing concrete again, besides that, when they are sinking they again repeat same old stories 15:05:35 does this affect silica or also lipstick for example? 15:05:35 dr_gogeta86: possibility to fix stuff in ui code for different devices 15:05:40 also 15:05:46 tortoisedoc: well, "SailfishOS UI code" 15:05:53 i certainly consider silica and lipstick part of that 15:05:55 ok 15:05:56 and alot was done also with ported device 15:06:04 IMHO alien is not a showstopper 15:06:12 tortoisedoc: lipstick is open already 15:06:14 avaiability on a store yes 15:06:17 arent there opensource alternatives to aliendalvik 15:06:17 alien dalvik and the likes are a fixable problem, but it requires effort 15:06:20 but it would be very useful to have it available as a 3rd party paid app or whatever 15:06:25 think raspberry shop for codecs 15:06:27 i've had alien dalvik running on the nexus 5 port, as an example 15:06:30 Morpog : not jolla-lipstick :) 15:06:32 I suppose myriad would have some interest in that too 15:06:37 do we need more time? 15:06:44 for this topic... 15:06:59 Yaniel : myriad still exists? 15:07:01 iekku: maybe add the time we saved on last topic 15:07:08 ok 15:07:12 would you consider open replacements for closed stuff ? 15:07:12 Stskeeps, you know how to crack/start it 15:07:12 i didn't even know if is possible copy bit from sbj and start it on a ported devices 15:07:12 http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6v-5qaykg_M/U14iCgbG3fI/AAAAAAAAAKc/R2kJClOA4oc/s1600/8448611516_aaf12dfe50_o.jpg 15:07:13 stories for naive kids from 2013 15:07:16 so 4 minutes still 15:07:17 could be eventually possilble under this arrangement 15:07:20 whoever is maintaining alien now 15:07:35 fk_lx, i asked to show mutual respect 15:08:05 dr_gogeta86: yeah.. i doubt we'll ever see alien dalvik, exchange, input methods as open source, as they are 3rd party offerings or under commercial licenses and crap 15:08:12 M4rtinK_tohkbd, i think priority is spread love 15:08:12 iekku: Jolla and mutual respect, please don't joke 15:08:14 dr_gogeta86: so it has to be an effort on jolla's behalf 15:08:40 I believe there are people in Ubuntu Phone community working on an open source Android player based on AOSP Dalvik code. Should be possible, I think? 15:08:43 fk_lx, this isn't for jolla but for community. please behave for sake of community members 15:08:45 Stskeeps: what about tortoisedoc question about jolla-lipstick? 15:08:48 i don't say open is say ... on request 15:08:52 Morpog: i answered it, i thought? 15:08:52 The communication on this topic was really frustrating. Would it be possible to communicate a little bit more in the future ? Even saying "waiting for shareholders to take a decision" would be a great improvement... 15:08:56 and paying it as a service 15:08:59 Oh, must have missed that 15:09:07 Stskeeps Morpog : yes 15:09:18 (it got answer, jolla-lipstick is included) 15:09:21 ah tehre it is 15:09:24 Tofe: got into a stupid situation where i simply wasn't able to be on the computer, and i'm pretty much the authority on this topic, others will keep on pushing it internally though 15:09:26 nice 15:09:30 Tofe: at this hour, that is 15:09:38 iekku: you showed where you have community members in late 2013 and 2014, please don't tell fairy tales 15:10:04 but if we moved forward with this as a model, you guys would generally be good with this kind of setup? 15:10:14 could we have a section on jolla.com indicating the status of this kind of things? 15:10:15 yes 15:10:15 Stskeeps: well, yes, but IRC isn't the only communication channel, there's TJC for instance 15:10:23 Stskeeps: since it looks Qt like, I can only support this :) 15:10:24 to have something official to point people to 15:10:25 i know that CLAs can frustrate people at least 15:10:37 Yaniel: i think this is more of a sailfishos.org thing 15:10:44 1 minute for this topic 15:10:45 Stskeeps: the problem about CLAs is more about other companies / partners 15:10:46 (obviously with a big "subject to change" disclaimer) 15:10:49 are they ok about this ? 15:10:56 Stskeeps: yes, sounds fine for me, it works on other places as well (canonical...) 15:10:58 for individuals like people here, it matter less 15:11:03 SfietKonstantinW: it's much easier to copyright license than assign copyright 15:11:09 iekku: what counted was not community, but covering your employee dirty behavior. I would ask where he is today? Not caring about his (former) company as expected. 15:11:13 in a company 15:11:17 qt shows that 15:11:21 this CLA seems ok (as it doesnt invovle snail mailing documents or something really stupid) 15:11:22 it can work with companies 15:11:25 Stskeeps: ok 15:11:35 iekku: so please don't talk about community 15:11:46 fk_lx, this is offtopic. please behave and stay on topic, else i have to ask you to leave from meeting 15:12:06 ok, thanks all for listening :) 15:12:13 glad to have this model validated by community too 15:12:15 ok, time is up 15:12:19 iekku: your remarks were offtopic 15:12:21 stephg, thank you for all the informations 15:12:21 so now for the generic questions? :P 15:12:25 Stskeeps, * 15:12:38 Stskeeps: you rock 15:12:40 Stskeeps: thanks for the clarifications 15:12:45 #info to see conversation see full logs 15:12:45 for next topic i'd like to start if it's ok? 15:12:47 thanks Stskeeps 15:12:54 Lets hope this to be a great starting point for SFOS 15:12:57 ffs i'm late 15:12:59 #topic General discussions - everyone (15 min) 15:13:00 Thanks 15:13:04 thanks Stskeeps 15:13:05 Stskeeps, please start 15:13:25 so, naturally you all are worried about jolla and it's state and how that affects your daily use of your phone or devices 15:13:37 nah I'm worried about the people 15:13:44 stephg: +1 15:13:46 also 15:13:53 and i just wanted to say we're very happy to hear ideas how we can make it easier for community (well, beyond open sourcing) in worst case scenarios 15:13:59 does it seem unlikely, likely, or something in between that the financian situation will adversely affect the intex deal or is the release of that phone past the point of no return? 15:14:17 +1 entil 15:14:19 entil: i think that none of us here can really answer that :/ 15:14:25 ugh 15:14:35 Stskeeps: that's a reply, at least, if not a complete answer, thanks ;) 15:14:41 i worried about status of services, what serices will continue work in same way, what services will have problems 15:14:57 yes, like qa, does it still stand? 15:15:01 and also, where community could help through this rough patch 15:15:04 but if the intex deal goes as expected and the phone hits the markets, is there some, none or metric tons of money flowing into jolla inc? 15:15:06 for apps especially? 15:15:09 so peoples complaining about very long time harbour approval, for example 15:15:30 i had the same idea as Stskeeps, to gather what's needed to keep things going for community and get an idea how community can help if you want 15:15:47 worst case scenario, would be to still have a store, maybe a tjc 15:15:48 +1 for Stskeeps and cybette 15:15:49 some of you guys definately have talents to set up a dummy empty jolla.com and sailfishos.org zone and tell what blows up :) 15:15:49 Stskeeps: what do you mean precisely by saying "how we can make it easier for community" ? 15:15:59 well, I am going to buy another Jolla from the Jolla shop for once :) 15:16:15 appstore with paid apps, and a royalty could help the financial stress 15:16:16 daitheflu: to keep on using your devices as usual 15:16:17 intex need to create a true sbj with all features community wants 15:16:31 daitheflu: for nokia n9 it was a pain in the ass afterwards 15:16:31 Amoled 2Gb ram 64 rom lte-a 15:16:44 ^ 15:17:06 so that's why we're talking openly about this, to have a head start, in case a worst case scenario does happen 15:17:09 Stskeeps : I guess opensourcing would be the answer to that problem? 15:17:11 If you are able to push out bleeding edge stuff that is "stable", then do it as long as you can. Else it would be fine to get some documentation / tools to flash our devices. Especially the tablet should be "easy" to get AOSP on it I guess, as it was originally an Android device. This would lower the frustration for people getting the tablet and ending with less than one software update. 15:17:12 and well, there's people to work on it 15:17:19 tortoisedoc: open sourcing doesn't fix, let's say, release repos 15:17:24 for the average consumer 15:17:29 Stskeeps: ok, thanks :) I wasn't there at the N9-age 15:17:46 Stskeeps: yes, being able to reset and get back to latest release is a must 15:17:51 if thinks go really bad, we are pretty screwed due to missing images 15:17:58 definitely 15:18:03 M4rtinK_tohkbd: so a tool to store a backup of factory image? 15:18:03 if the repos go down 15:18:10 right 15:18:12 can you tell which jolla company parts will have most stress, and what will work as usual? 15:18:30 coderus: that's unclear at this point, a temporary layoff is always a very tense situation 15:18:36 some people might find other work, etc 15:18:45 it's fair to say all parts :) 15:18:47 Stskeeps: yep, thats the main worst-case-protectio 15:18:48 so, from random offices? 15:18:53 Stskeeps: right, that kind of tool, or even a semi-official guide, would be necesary 15:19:13 other people might want to run different OS's on their devices, so a simple android baseport could be useful for some 15:19:18 Stskeeps: important is definitely to get valid images, not infectef 15:19:23 *infected 15:19:42 yes, something hashed+signed as official 15:19:45 coderus, we can't really say at the moment, to be seen 15:19:46 Stskeeps: do you mean a jolla inc android baseport or what? 15:19:53 entil: nah, more like hackers edition 15:19:56 question: is the layoff impact helpdesk ? have a request on zendesk open for a month and no reply :( 15:20:00 I would also like to mention the Maemo community governance 15:20:00 +1 Stskeeps 15:20:00 oops, took my hat away for awhile 15:20:15 TBH, android on jolla is not interesting :P 15:20:17 the blobs on the device are working drivers 15:20:30 although, a dualboot.. 15:20:30 kk, because a jolla inc android might sound like giving up on sailfish, but µg with a sailfish ux and no google anywhere is an interesting choice if everything goes apocalypse 15:20:33 tortoisedoc: it's not, but for people that might want to run experiments, it's handy, or ubuntu touch, or whichever 15:20:39 a bit old doesn't it ? 15:20:39 you still can flash a n900 and use it without issues with default repos 15:20:48 that are now run by community 15:20:48 Coolgeek: i would say pretty much all functions are impacted, the question is how much for each, that's not clear yet. 15:21:03 M4rtinK_tohkbd: +1 15:21:09 em, do we need to start backuping jolla repos already? or one is joking? 15:21:15 as the domains no pont to community infra 15:21:17 Stskeeps: or whichever ;) 15:21:21 coderus: it's a unstable situation but not doomsday yet 15:21:28 collecting food and building shelter is a good idea :p 15:21:31 coderus, just in case dump 15:21:33 Stskeeps: hows the dooms clock 15:21:34 Yes - making sure we have a solid Android base for the Jolla Phone and Tablet would be a sensible insurance. 15:21:46 Stskeeps: +1 for a backup tool 15:21:48 ah ok :) 15:21:53 on the other han the N9 is pretty much dead without specific manual steps 15:21:59 begin with twrp 15:22:07 n9 is dead at all 15:22:20 in some case you can't install even whareouse 15:22:28 so, let's keep the conversation going 15:22:50 dommsday or not backup is always a good idea 15:23:06 cybette: +2 15:23:10 i'm not personally affected by layoffs since well, i already resigned to pursue careless youthful projects, not because of the current situation in the company ;) last day 30th; but hope to be around as a contractor to jolla to do good stuff still 15:23:24 so let's keep the discussion going and let's do what's good for all jolla users 15:23:25 why all cm aren't like this 15:23:33 dropped 15:23:34 sailors: *if* (and I really hope it's an if) there's a lights out, do you have a feel for how much notice:- if the community needs to rally to prep things 15:23:38 Stskeeps: +3 15:23:48 +1 15:23:48 can also help motivate contributors 15:23:48 to have a safety jacket 15:24:00 personally i would like my jolla phone to keep working, it's a really neat thing :) 15:24:03 just please keep this https://fralef.me/using-android-without-google-apps.html kind of stuff in mind if there's to be an android base image ;) 15:24:04 #info chem|st Rüdiger Schiller Maemo Community e.V. 15:24:14 ok, other topics than this one? 15:24:14 should we start collect funding too ? 15:24:22 funds is the root of all solutions isn't it ? 15:24:29 SK +1 15:24:30 and I +1 stskeeps on that, the jolla phone and subsequent intex whatever possible community sailfish flashes are a good thing 15:24:32 indiegogo? 15:24:37 funds are really challenging at this point, though, there's shareholder stuff etc 15:24:46 also, well, you guys haven't gotten all your tablets 15:24:55 Stskeeps so IGG is not an option? 15:25:01 SfietKonstantinW: I guess our small community could not really get any serious funding done 15:25:03 i wouldn't advise it personally, but i'm not a lawyer 15:25:11
