    5. <Jolla> We certainly want to have bluetooth support for AppSupport, it is not (rainemak, 08:06:36)
    6. <Jolla> about that, and we have some novel ideas regarding this. (rainemak, 08:06:36)

  4. More generic features enabled in kernel configs (5 mins -- asked by nephros) (rainemak, 08:12:16)
    1. <nephros> I’d like to raise awareness for this feature request, maybe for (rainemak, 08:12:22)
    2. <nephros> SFOS5 we could get a couple of the more desktop-y kernel functions (rainemak, 08:12:22)
    3. <nephros> enabled? (rainemak, 08:12:22)
    4. <nephros> My personal wish would be filesystems like NFS, CIFS and UDF, but (rainemak, 08:12:23)
    5. <nephros> there are some other requests in the linked topic. (rainemak, 08:12:23)
    6. <nephros> Where would a “formal” request with specific features have to be (rainemak, 08:12:23)
    7. <nephros> directed? mer-hybris/mer-kernel-check? Somewhere else? (rainemak, 08:12:25)
    8. https://github.com/mer-hybris/mer-kernel-check/ (rainemak, 08:12:28)
    9. <Jolla> You are right. The mer-hybris/mer-kernel-check is the right place to (rainemak, 08:12:35)
    10. <Jolla> look at. Opening a PR is a good way to start discussion regarding (rainemak, 08:12:37)
    11. <Jolla> needed kernel options. (rainemak, 08:12:39)

  5. Jolla C2 adaptation repos and source code (5 mins asked by nephros) (rainemak, 08:15:19)
    1. <nephros> This is a bit of a Folllow-up question to an older one forum topic (rainemak, 08:15:26)
    2. <nephros> meeting log: The answer to the earlier question was: Opening up (rainemak, 08:15:26)
    3. <nephros> adaptation sources got J Tablet and JollaC (one) was “are tricky as (rainemak, 08:15:26)
    4. <nephros> there were some proprietary sources”. (rainemak, 08:15:26)
    5. <nephros> Will such components be made available for the C2 device? (rainemak, 08:15:26)
    6. <nephros> Also, as noted here, open source tarballs are not currently (rainemak, 08:15:27)
    7. <nephros> available e.g. at Index of /sources/. Will these be available? If (rainemak, 08:15:29)
    8. <nephros> so, when? (rainemak, 08:15:33)
    9. <nephros> Do users who want to have access to e.g. the GPLv2 kernel sources, (rainemak, 08:15:35)

    14. http://releases.sailfishos.org/sources/ (rainemak, 08:15:45)
    15. <Jolla> Current adaptation build process for C2 is complex making also OBS (rainemak, 08:15:47)
    16. <Jolla> building difficult. That is making source code publishing to Index (rainemak, 08:15:49)
    17. <Jolla> of /sources/ also difficult. There are tons of topics to be sorted (rainemak, 08:15:51)
    18. <Jolla> out. No schedule promises at this point. (rainemak, 08:15:53)
